  • 01 December 1967

    In the second and third sentences of the article "Triads in Foetal Skeletal Muscle" by Sheppard M. Walker and G. Randolph Schrodt (Nature, 216, 985; 1967) "the Z level of the line" should read "the level of the Z line1'. In the second line of the legend to Fig. 6 "right" should read "left".
