We were also not clear that the data in figure 3 were based on the proportions of uninfected females in the sexual population versus the asexual population, where “uninfected” means not infected by any species of sterilizing trematodes. Hence the total number of females in these calculations includes uninfected females, Microphallus-infected females, and females infected by other sterilizing trematodes. We felt that infections by all species of sterilizing trematodes should be included in our fitness estimates, but we did not make that clear. We thank Ben Bolker and Sang Woo Park for pointing out the oversight.
