Abstract

All errors found in this paper are due to six samples included in the paper incorrectly assigned as being from Queensland, Australia. The report of Strongyloides fuelleborni infections from Australia made in this paper was incorrect, as those samples in fact originated in Guinea-Bissau and Senegal. There is an error in Table 4. Specimen Human 333_Au from Queensland (Australia) should be listed as Human 333_GuBi from Guinea-Bissau. Specimen Human 368_16_Au from Queensland (Australia) should be listed as Human 368_16_Se from Senegal. Specimen Human 378_Au from Queensland (Australia) should be listed as Human 378_Bo from Bolivia. Specimen Human 507_Au from Queensland (Australia) should be listed as Human 507_Ni from Nigeria. Specimen Human 524_Au from Queensland (Australia) should be listed as Human 524_Ni from Nigeria. Specimen Human 563_Au from Queensland (Australia) should be listed as Human 563_GuBi from Guinea-Bissau. The authors have provided a corrected Table 4 with the corrected specimens and locations in red.
