Abstract

The following error in Table 1 has come to the authors’ attention:

Table 1. Association of molecular lineage (amplified by PCR) and morphospecies (identified by microscopy) found in Z. capensis sampled in Bosque Protector Jerusalem Quito-Ecuador. The first morphospecies denotes the morphospecies responsible for the main infection, whereas the other represents a coinfection

*Totals are different because not all samples diagnosed by PCR were diagnosed by morphology. Out of the 135 samples that were positive by PCR, four were undetermined coinfections and two were not identified to lineage.

(d/s1) number of samples detected positive for molecular lineage /number of samples screened by PCR-sequencing

(d/s2) number of samples detected positive for morphospecies /number of samples screened by microscopy once molecular lineage was determined

Current information: BAEBIC02 (GenBank: KF537291)

Correct information: BAEBIC02 (GenBank: KF537287)

The corrected version of the Table is shown below, with the corrected information in bold:

In addition, Figure 2 also contains errors:

Current information:

P. homopolare KF537281 ZOCAP11 BAEBIC02;

P. homopolare KF537291 ZOCAP12 BAEBIC02 (grey shading)

Correct information:

P. homopolare KF537287 BAEBIC02;

P. homopolare KF537291 ZOCAP12 (no grey shading, because this lineage was not found in the authors’ sample).

The corrected version is shown below:

Finally, throughout the manuscript, ZOCAP15 should read ZONCAP15.
