The Original Article was published on 15 March 2023

Correction: Parasites & Vectors (2023) 16:102 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13071-023-05711-6

Following publication of the original article [1], two errors came to the attention of the authors: Mao Zhang had not been indicated as a co-first author, and in the Funding declaration, the funding number of the National Natural Science Foundation of China had been incorrectly detailed as ‘8210082025’ instead of ‘82102432’, the correct number.

These errors have now been rectified in the original article. The authors thank you for reading and apologize for any inconvenience caused.
