I.(J)/LG 2 claims on 15 Sept 1940

Hello
I have a question. According to the Tony Wood’s claimlist I.(J)/LG 2 made 4 claims on 15 Sept 1940, but in the list only one was identified; Herbert Ihlefeld London 15:30. Also in the Marseille article in English Wiki they say that “I.(J)/LG 2 claimed four aerial victories in return for two losses. Only two Hurricanes were lost over the Thames on this date “. But according to the Finnish edition of Heaton’s & Lewis’ Marseille book I.(J)/LG 2 claimed on that day 2 victories over Thames. So is there better info on the claims of I.(J)/LG 2 on 15 Sept 1940? E.g. in Jochen Prien et.al.: Die Jagdfliegerverbände der Deutschen Luftwaffe 1934 bis 1945 Teil 4 Teilband II? How many claims, times and places and claimants besides Ihlefeld and Marseille?

TIA
Juha

According to Prien:

Between 26/06/40 and 31/10/40,six or seven "abschuss" were claimed,the precise dates of which are not known,to which must be added five whoses dates are known but not the claimants.
On these 11 or 12 "abschuss":

6 by Marseille
4 by Helmut Geodert
1 or 2 by Hermann Guhl

08/09/40
spit by Marseille 09.40 ("abschuss" N° ???)

15/09/40
spit by Ihlefeld 15.30 London ("abschuss" N°22)
Not Named spit

09/10/40
