The authors regret:

This article contains an error in Fig. 3. The orientation of nad1 should be clockwise. See a corrected Fig. 3 below. As a consequence, nad1 should be clockwise in Fig. 7 and Fig. 8B as well.

We report for the first time the fragmented mitochondrial (mt) genomes of two Pedicinus species: Pedicinus obtusus and Pedicinus badii, and compared them with the lice of humans and chimpanzees. Despite being congeneric, the two monkey lice are distinct from each other in mt karyotype. The variation in mt karyotype between the two Pedicinus lice is the most pronounced among the congeneric species of sucking lice observed to date and is attributable to the opposite directions between them in mt karyotype evolution. Two of the inferred ancestral mt minichromosomes of the higher primate lice merged as one in the macaque louse whereas one of the ancestral minichromosomes split into two in the colobus louse after these two species diverged from their most recent common ancestor. Our results showed that mt genome fragmentation was a two-way process in the higher primate lice, and minichromosome merger was more common than previously thought.
