Erratum to: Antonie van Leeuwenhoek (2015) 108:1449–1456 DOI 10.1007/s10482-015-0600-6

In the original publication of the article, the spelling of Cochlodinium polykrikoides was published incorrectly in the title. The correct title is given in this erratum.

Further, the first and last sentences of the abstract have also been published incorrectly. The corrected sentences should read as, “A Gram-negative, aerobic, non-motile, catalase and oxidase positive rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain 4CoA2T, was isolated from Cochlodinium polykrikoides culture fluid in the laboratory” and “The type strain is 4CoA2T (=JCM 30823T = KEMB 3501-068 14T).”
