In Table 3, the following text should be removed from the legend:

Genetic variation was compared within and between populations by AMOVA. Among all sites, approximately 71.5% of the variation was attributable to differences among individuals, whereas 24.5% of the variation was explained by individuals within populations, and just 4.1% among collections within Iquitos (Table 4).

The above text should appear within the fourth paragraph of the Results section.

In the fourth paragraph of the Results section, the following sentence should be removed:

AMOVA results showed that 71.5% of the total variation observed was attributable to differences within individuals; only 4.1% of the total variation was attributable to differences among samples collected within Iquitos, indicating a lack of genetic structure within the city.

The above sentence should appear in the legend of Table 3. Please see Tables 3 and 4 and their correct legends here.
