A Corrigendum on
An Ethnobotanical Study of Medicinal Plants in Kinmen
by Huang, S.-S., Huang, C.-H., Ko, C.-Y., Chen, T.-Y., Cheng, Y.-C, and Chao, J. (2022). Front. Pharmacol. 12:681190. doi: 10.3389/fphar.2021.681190
In the original article, there was a mistake in Table 1 as published. The corrected Table 1 appears below.
TABLE 1
TABLE 1. The important historical events that promoted ethnobotanical plant exchange in Kinmen.
Furthermore, a word was misused in the text of the introduction. A correction has been made to Introduction, Paragraph 1:
“Kinmen (Quemoy) is located on the west coast of the Pacific Ocean, specifically in the west-central island area of Taiwan’s main island (Chen, 2017). At present, its correct legal name is Kinmen County, and it is under the jurisdiction of Fujian Province, the Republic of China. A narrow part of the sea separates it from Xiamen City in Fujian Province, making it an independent island surrounded by the sea.”
There was also an error in affiliation 6. Instead of “Chinese Medicine Research Center, Department of Chinese Pharmaceutical Sciences and Chinese Medicine Resources, China Medical University, Taichung, Taiwan”, it should be “Chinese Medicine Research Center, Department of Chinese Pharmaceutical Sciences and Chinese Medicine Resources, Master Program for Food and Drug Safety, China Medical University, Taichung, Taiwan”.
The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
