ETA: I just noticed that your article doesn't have a #6. So, you look to be correct. I simply looked at the last number and didn't physically count them until trying to make a list.

Had a chance to have a quick look at my old article this morning. It says towards the beginning of the article that there are 7 Type 2s. I believe I started the writing the article back in 2004, so this article simply may have predated the Waddell being added to the actual checklist.
But I did notice the printing error in the chart. Looks like they just skipped #6 and went straight to Seybold at #7. There is still no mention of the Waddell being a Type 2 in the chart either. Tenney is the final Type 2 listed, but he should be #7 not #8. Waddell, when he was added, became the 8th and then if McCarthy or any others are added, that would be the 9th.
