   The index position of each item in the cluster list is used as the
   identifier for each **bucket**.
 * Each **bucket** is a dictionary. In this case, each bucket has
-  two key-values. The first is **replaces**, which is a list of replica
+  two key-values. The first is **replicas**, which is a list of replica
