The original online version of this article was revised:

This article contains two errors: one in the Results and Discussion section and the other in Table 1.

Results and Discussion

Description of Bacteroides celer sp. nov.

The originally published version read as follows:

The type strain is KFT8^T (= KCTC 15614^T = JCM 30116^T), which was isolated from the feces of a 23-year-old healthy male.

It should be read as follows:

The type strain is KFT8^T (= KCTC 15614^T = JCM 36011^T), which was isolated from the feces of a 23-year-old healthy male.

Published Table 1

The value for “Temperature range (optimum) (°C)” of strain CG01^T was published incorrectly.

Table 1.

Differential characteristics of the two novel strains compared to phylogenetically related species. All strains were positive for the acidification of D-glucose, D-lactose, D-saccharose, D-maltose, D-xylose, hydrolysis of esculin ferric citrate (β-glucosidase), D-mannose, D-rhamnose (API 20A), arginine dihydrolase, β-glucosidase, N-acetyl-β-glucosaminidase, alkaline phosphatase, and arylamidase activities for leucyl glycine and alanine (API Rapid ID 32A). In the API 50 CH test strip, all strains tested positive for D-xylose, D-galactose, D-glucose, D-fructose, D-mannose, amygdalin, esculin, D-maltose, D-lactose, sucrose, inulin, D-raffinose, starch, glycogen, and gentiobiose. All data were obtained in this study.
