Abstract

[This corrects the article on p. 128 in vol. 8, PMID: 25429261.].

Highlights

It has come to our attention that some of the data presented in Table 1, on the mass, numbers of neurons and densities of brain structures in Artiodactyla, required minor corrections
While the legend informed that total values for the cerebral cortex included the hippocampus, we recently realized that values for the hippocampus had in four cases been included in the rest of brain, not cerebral cortex, in Table 1, and had failed to be included for Damaliscus
P. 7, Figure 5A – The relationship between mass of each brain structure and number of other cells can be described as a single power function of exponent 0.859 ± 0.047 (p < 0.0001)

Summary

Introduction

It has come to our attention that some of the data presented in Table 1, on the mass, numbers of neurons and densities of brain structures in Artiodactyla, required minor corrections. A Corrigendum on Cellular scaling rules for the brain of Artiodactyla include a highly folded cortex with few neurons by Kazu, R. 4, Figure 3A – Brain mass increases as a power function of body mass with a small exponent of 0.548 ± 0.038 (p = 0.0048).
