During the review process of the paper by A. Zilli and G. M. László “The African members of the Platyja genus group, with description of a new species and comments on other taxa currently attributed to Megacephalomana (Lepidoptera: Erebidae)“, published in Integrative Systematics 5 (1): 73–93 ( https://doi.org/10.18476/2022.174887), some wording was inadvertently changed in the discussion about male-limited dimorphism within the remarks to the species Platyja (Facidia) vacillans (Walker, 1858). The sentence “the females should show that character at the same phenotypic frequency in the male“ should in fact read as follows: “the females should show that character at the same phenotypic frequency of the gene frequency in males“.
