The authors apologise for omitting a full record of GenBank numbers, and a complete list is provided here together with an update on the Acknowledgements section. Appendix 1. List of specimens included in the phylogenetic analyses. Internal transcribed spacers of rDNA (ITS) sequence data was generated. A total of 146 Chrysophylloideae accessions were collected in the Chocó, Magdalena valley, Catatumbo, Amazon and Macarena lowland rain forests of Colombia. The remaining sequences were generated by Roosevelt Garcia, and obtained from previous phylogenetic studies on Chrysophylloideae (Sánchez-C. et al., 2021; Gonzalez et al., 2009; Swenson et al., 2008), and GenBank.
