Please see the corrected text below:IN THE ABSTRACTUpon reanalysis with corrected 16S rRNA sequence, the closest full- length match to non- genome strains in Genbank at the time of this corrigendum was to ‘Candidatus Rickettsia senegalensis’ strain R184 (Genbank accession number OM311169) at 99.7 % identity.IN TABLE 1The 16S rRNA column analysis was performed with the chimeric 16S rRNA sequence and is thus in error. The top non- genome strain match and identity is as described for changes to the Abstract. The best match to a complete genome was to R. felis URRWXCal2 (Genbank CP000053) at 99.8 % identity.IN PHYLOGENY16S rRNA comparisons are in error and are corrected as for Abstract and Table 1.In summary, we have, through antibiotic clearance of Mycoplasma contamination of R. tillamookensis Tillamook 23T, ascertained that corrections need to be made to the published genome record for 16S and 23S rRNA sequences. Genbank records have been updated accordingly. These changes do not affect the status of R. tillamookensis as a distinct species or its phylogenetic placement among the transitional group of Rickettsia.The authors have provided a detailed explanation of this correction in the Supplementary File 1.The authors apologise for any inconvenience caused.Funding InformationThe authors received no specific grant from any funding agency.Conflicts of interestThe authors declare that there are no conflicts of interest.CORRIGENDUMGauthier et al., Int.
