The above published article by Santiago-Alarcon et al. contains factual errors within table 2. The corrected table is published below. These corrections do not affect the validity of any conclusions within the published article.

UN = unidentified host (PCR failed to amplify or sequence was of low quality); NBP = no blood, parous specimen.

Parasite lineages are indicated in brackets and the number of times the interaction was observed is indicated in parenthesis.

a New bird host record for H. minutus (Turdus merula and T. philomelos were the only known hosts, see Palinauskas et al. 2013).
