In the recently published paper by J. Leiro et al. Parasitology119, 267–272, the legend to Fig. 4 should have read as follows:

Fig. 4. Dot–blot hybridization analyses to evaluate sensitivity of the probes C38-DIG (for Microgemma caulleryi) and F9-DIG (for Tetramicra brevifilum). Lanes 1 and 3, genomic DNA of M. caulleryi and T. brevifilum respectively; lanes 2 and 4, C38 and F9 fragments in pBluescript II SK(+). Visualization was with the aid of alkaline-phosphatase-coupled anti-DIG antibody (see text).
