Changing the color of a anchor life when hovering over it

I am trying to have the color change when I hover over an anchor link but it is not working. I believe that I am doing it right but it keeps telling me to style the hover anchor.

a { text-decoration: none; }

wrapper {

max-width: 940px; margin: 0 auto; }

logo {

text-align: center; margin: 0; }

h1, h2{ color: #fff; }

p{ color: #000; }

nav a, { color: #fff;

}

nav a: hover{ color: #32673f; }

css/main.css 
a {
  text-decoration: none;
}

#wrapper {
  max-width: 940px;
  margin: 0 auto;
}

#logo {
  text-align: center;
  margin: 0;
}

h1, h2{
  color: #fff;
}

p{
  color: #000;
}

nav a,  {
  color: #fff;

}

nav a: hover{
  color: #32673f; 
}

There is a space between a: and hover, that needs to be removed. Hope this helps.
