Lexicon Urthus lists about a dozen typos in the first edition of the New Sun series. Some have been corrected over the years in later editions of the New Sun series, while others have not. Recently, checking in on the e-text versions of Shadow & Claw, Sword & Citadel, and Urth, shows the following:
echidnes = no change (should be "echidnas")
artellos => martellos
onegar => onager
thyacine = no change ("thylacine")
cynaeous = no change ("cyaneous")
phororhacos = no change ("phorusrhacos")
pommander => pomander
catachtonian = no change ("catachthonian")
Empyrian = no change ("Empyrean")
thodicy => theodicy
phoebad = no change ("phoebas") [except that "phoebad" is in Mrs. Byrne's Dictionary, so this isn't exactly a typo]
hetrochthnous = no change ("heterochthnous")
So 4/12 is one out of three typos corrected.
