Versions Notes

Error in Table

Supplementary Table S3 in our recent publication [1] contained errors arising from the misinterpretation of a supplementary data file in another publication [2].

Text Correction

As a consequence of the corrections made to Table S3, three main text sentences have also been revised.
In the original paper, Section 3. Results, Sub-section 3.1. Overall Lipidome Compositions, Paragraph 2, the sentence “While fewer ether lipids were detected than in the D. melanogaster studies, and only about a third were chain-specified, many more ether lipids were chain-specified in Qfly than in the D. melanogaster precedents” has been modified in the revised version to “Little definitive data on the ether lipids were available in the D. melanogaster studies, but fewer TGes were detected in our study than in the one D. melanogaster study which could be compared. Only about two-thirds of the Qfly ether lipids were chain-specified, but this was many more than in the D. melanogaster precedents”.
In the original paper, Section 3. Results, Sub-section 3.5. Possible Sampling Biases in the Ether Lipid Data, Paragraph 2, the sentence “The scope for detection bias was significant, given that the total number of ether lipids we recovered, 38, was only about a third as many as have so far been reported in D. melanogaster, even though those in the latter were seldom chain-specified [51,52].” has been modified in the revised version to “The scope for detection bias was significant, given that the total number of ether lipids we recovered, 38, may be significantly fewer than the available D. melanogaster data suggest may exist (noting that the latter have seldom been chain-specified [51,52])”.
In the original paper, Section 4. Discussion, Paragraph 9, the sentence “We only recovered about a third as many ether lipids as have so far been reported in D. melanogaster [51,52,54], whereas our numbers of chain-specified ether lipids, 24 in total, were significantly higher than the precedents in that species, or any other insects [97,98].” has been changed to “We only recovered a proportion of the ether lipids that studies so far suggest may exist in D. melanogaster [51,52,54], whereas our numbers of chain-specified ether lipids, 24 in total, were significantly higher than the precedents in that species or any other insects [97,98]”.
The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
