There was a typographical error in Table 2 of Jacobs et al. (2014) as one partial row of data is repeated. Specifically, for Vol., the values for the Clouded Leopard Stellate cells are repeated in place of the Granule cells. For the Clouded Leopard Granule cells, the values should NOT be the following:

Mean = 691.9, SD = 222.2, L95% = 247.4, U95% = 1136.4.

Instead, these values should be:

Mean = 51.4, SD = 32.9, L95% = −14.4, U95% = 117.3.

None of the corrections are in bold font.

          Dendritic measures and soma size for each neuronal type across speciesa.

Dendritic measures and soma size for each neuronal type across speciesa.

a Dependent measures are: Volume (Vol, μm3), Total Dendritic Length (TDL, μm), Mean Segment Length (MSL), Dendritic Segment Count (DSC), Tortuosity (Tor), and Soma Size (μm2). Species are arranged in from smallest (clouded leopard) to largest (African elephant) in terms of brain mass. L95% = lower95% confidence interval; U95% = upper95% confidence interval. Bold numbers represent comparisons that were significantly different from the elephant values; red numbers represent comparisons that were significantly different from the clouded leopard values. See text for further explanation.
