Which is the correct specific name Gerygone chloronotus or chloronota?

I have the former in the Opus and the latter from Avibase.

Same explanation as for the scrubwren. In addition, if you make a search in Avibase only for Gerogyne, you will notice that the majority of the results have second parts ending in "a". At least they are sticking to a rule ...
