Correction to ‘Cuticular hydrocarbons and collective response to water stress in a desert ant’

In the paper by Menzel et al. (2026), the first sentence of the Discussion is incorrect.It reads, 'Foragers from risk-averse colonies, which reduce foraging in dry conditions, have a lower abundance of alkenes than foragers of risk-tolerant colonies', but should read 'Foragers from riskaverse colonies, which reduce foraging in dry conditions, have a higher abundance of alkenes than foragers of risk-tolerant colonies'.We apologize for this error.
