Correction to: Scientific Reports https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-021-84111-1, published online 11 March 2021

The original version of this Article contains errors.

The cultures designated as holotypes of Trichoderma botryosum, Trichoderma caeruloviride, Trichoderma lentissimum and Trichoderma pseudopyramidale were not indicated to be in a metabolically inactive state. As a consequence, the proposed new species are invalid under the Shenzhen Code (Turland et al. 2018)1.

Those species are validated herein:

Trichoderma botryosum M.C.H. Rodríguez, H.C. Evans & R.W. Barreto sp. nov. –MycoBank: MB840985

Evans, K. Belachew & R.W. Barreto. VIC 47493 (dried metabolically inactive culture). Ex-type culture: COAD 2422.

Trichoderma pseudopyramidale M.C.H. Rodríguez, H.C. Evans & R.W. Barreto sp. nov. – Mycobank: MB840988

For a detailed description see: Rodríguez et. al., Sci Rep 11 (no. 5671): page 18 (2021)

Holotype: ETHIOPIA: Southern Nations, Nationalities and Peoples Region, Kaffa Zone, Bonga District, Maakira-Grugutto, semi-wild coffee farm, alt 1600 m; isolated as an endophyte from leaves and stems of Coffea arabica, 25 November 2015, H.C.
