Correction to: Scientific Reports 10.1038/s41598-022-24767-5, published online 27 November 2022

The original version of this Article contained an error in Figure 4C, where the incorrect locality details for the type locality for Westralunio inbisi meridiemus were provided. As a result, the legend of Figure 4C,

“(C) Margaret River, Western Australia, type locality for W. inbisi meridiemus, at Canebreak Pool. Photo by Dr Michael W. Klunzinger.”

now reads:

“(C) Margaret River, Western Australia, type locality for W. inbisi meridiemus, at Apex Weir. Photo by Dr Michael W. Klunzinger.”

The original Figure 4 and accompanying legend appear below.

Beatty. (C) Margaret River, Western Australia, type locality for W. inbisi meridiemus, at Canebreak Pool. Photo by Dr Michael W. Klunzinger.

Furthermore, in the Results, under the subheading ‘Taxonomic accounts’, for the type locality of Westralunio inbisi meridiemus subsp. nov.,

“Canebreak Pool, Margaret River, Western Australia (33.9460°S, 115.0707°E, GDA94) (see Fig. 4C).”

now reads:

“Apex Weir, Margaret River, Western Australia (33.942995°S, 115.073151°E, GDA94) (see Fig. 4C).”

Additionally, Table 3 contained errors, where four voucher specimen numbers for “Westralunio carteri” II and III for “BLACKWOOD, WA, Australia, Chapman River”, located in column ‘Voucher/source’, were incorrect. Lastly, GenBank accession number “MT040660” was placed incorrectly on the same line as “MT040659” for “Westralunio carteri” II under “BLACKWOOD, WA, Australia, St. Johns Brook”. The correct and incorrect values appear below.
