In the article “Laboratory Culture of the Oriental Lancelet Branchiostoma belcheri” by Kinya Yasui, Makoto Urata, Nobuo Yamaguchi, Hiroshi Ueda and Yasuhisa Henmi that appeared on pages 514–520 of Volume 24, No. 5 (2007), there was a typographical error in a generic name (page 515) in Materials and Methods. The incorrectly spelled name Epiginichthys in the article should be replaced with the correct name, Epigonichthys.
