There is an error in the title of the third subsection of the Results. The correct title is: Interspecific differences in otoliths of N. korthausae and N. ruudwildekampi.

There is an error in the last sentence of the “Intraspecific differences in otoliths of N. korthausae” subsection of the Results. The correct sentence is: The otolith variables confirm these differences because the length-height index (0.86±0.03 for Mafia vs. 0.92±0.04 for Kwachepa), the relative antirostrum length (2.97±1.6 for Mafia vs. 4.8±1.7 for Kwachepa), the excisura angle (150.1±8.9 for Mafia vs. 138.0±11.4 for Kwachepa) and the posteroventral angle (123.89±3.4 vs. 128.94±5.6) are significantly different (T-test, P<0.05; see Table 4).

There is an error in the legend for Fig 4. Please see the complete, corrected Fig 4 here.
