Abstract

Because their coordinates were mistyped, the Two Micron All-Sky Survey (2MASS) point source list for the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) cluster NGC 2002 (SWB class I), and the images and point source list for the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) cluster IC 1655 (SWB class II) were retrieved incorrectly. After rectifying the problem, the surface brightness fluctuation (SBF) magnitudes of the supercluster class SWB I are now 0.15 mag brighter, and those of the SWB II are 0.05 mag fainter. The colors of the two superclusters have also changed, albeit very slightly, and hence the fits of fluctuation color versus age for the supercluster set have also changed slightly. We list the new values of the fluctuation magnitudes, fluctuation colors, and fitting parameters in the tables here, which correspond to Tables 4 and 6 in the original paper.
