Brian, et.al.,
It's not a typo or and an error.  It's one might call a variant 
spelling. The Merck Index lists Bromcresol Purple, CAS Number 115-40-2. 
Below is what Sigma lists with the same CAS number.  I've noticed the 
prefix Brom or Bromo on the name of several dyes.  Either way, it's the 
same thing.

*114375 * *Sigma-Aldrich *


  Bromocresol Purple


    BioReagent, suitable for indicator, Dye content 90 %

Synonym: *5,5?-Dibromo-/o/-cresolsulfonphthalein, Bromcresol purple 
sultone form

Found a lot of vendors selling Bromocresol Purple (and Green for that matter).  Best I can figure is that this is a typo on CAP's checklist (that's been there for several years now).
