Erratum to: Diaporthe is paraphyletic

In Gao et al. (2017), the reference Thompson et al. (2011) was incorrectly cited for its contents. The statement “Thompson et al. (2017) reported significant damage to sunflower in Australia caused by Diaporthe helianthi which was originally only known from Europe (former Yugoslavia), and is apparently an invasive species in Australia”, should be corrected to: “Thompson et al. (2017) reported considerable damage to sunflower in Australia caused by Diaporthe guylae . Diaporthe helianthi has not been found in Australia and remains a biosecurity threat (Thompson et al. 2011).
