In the original article, there was a spelling mistake in a species name contained in Table 3 as published. As the information in this table is required for validation of the novel species combinations, this mistake has been corrected from “Caballeronia ptereocthonis comb. nov.” to “Caballeronia ptereochthonis comb. nov.” and “Burkholderia ptereocthonis” to “Burkholderia ptereochthonis”. The corrected Table 3 appears below.

Summary of the novel combinations proposed for 13 species of Caballeronia.
LMG = Belgian Coordinated Collections of Microorganisms, Laboratorium voor Microbiologie, Universiteit Gent; CCUG = Culture Collection, University of Göteborg, Department of Clinical Bacteriology, Institute of Clinical Bacteriology, Immunology, and Virology, University of Göteborg; The strain numbers starting with the abbreviations ‘MAN,’ ‘AU,’ ‘NF,’ and ‘HI’ are not part of international culture collections.
Also, an additional section titled “Description of New Species Combinations” was added to the original article. The section contains a short protologue for each proposed novel combination to conform to the rules of the Bacterial Code of Nomenclature. The protologues appear below.
The authors apologize for this error. The original article has been updated.
