CORRECTION IN TABLE 1 NEEDED

Posted by ehcoliveira on 04 Dec 2015 at 12:12 GMT

While editing Table 1, one row was deleted partially. Hence, information about chromosome morphology does not match the species, starting in the 7th row (Balearica pavonina). to correct this, the information concerning the 7th species (B. pavonina) is in the 8th row (Psophia viridis). The information of the 8th species (Psophia viridis) is on the 9th row (P. crepitans), and so on. Finally, the information of the 14th species (Rhynochetos jubatus), is in the 15th row (Eurypyga helias). The information for the 15th and past species, Eurypyga helias is missing then, and correspond to 1-M, and from 2nd to 10th pairs are all A (Acrocentric).
