Error in Table

In the original publication [1], there is a mistake in Table 1 as published. The sequence for An. balabacensis balaba Rev was written as 5′-GC ACC GCT CTT GGC GGG ATA T-3′ 224–228 bp. The correct Table 1 appears below. The authors apologize for any inconvenience caused and state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.

Table 1. Universal forward primer and the five Anopheles species-specific reverse primers (from this study) for An. latens, An. introlatus, An. cracens, and An. balabacensis with the sequences and the product size.
