The penultimate sentence in the Results section contains an error. The sentence ‘ . . .
declined 44%, 48% and 51% in the predator-free control . . . ’ should instead read
‘ . . . declined 44%, 48% and 51% in the high-richness treatment . . . ’. The correct
sentence is given here in full:
Total dipteran oviposition declined 37% in response to dragonflies, 31%
to damselflies and 27% to crayfish, relative to predator-free control, and
declined 44%, 48% and 51% in the high-richness treatment relative to dragonfly,
damselfly and crayfish treatments, respectively (table 1 and figure 1e).
This does not affect our results or conclusions. We apologize for any
confusion caused.
