An article last Sunday about bee­keepers who combat the “save the bees” narrative misstated the role in pollination played by moths, wasps and wild bees. They pollinate wild plants and many crops, not wheat and corn, which are wind pollinated.

An article on Page 8 this weekend about the Afro-Brazilian artist Emanoel Araújo refers incorrectly to Amanda Carneiro. She is an artistic organizer for the 2024 Venice Biennale, not the Vienna Biennale.

An article on July 30 about the director Chris­topher Nolan and his film “Oppenheimer” described incorrectly a film scene involving Albert Einstein and J. Robert Oppenheimer near a pond. Einstein walked past Lewis Strauss in silence, not past Oppenheimer.

Because of a transcription error, an interview on Aug. 20 with Matthieu Ricard misquoted one of Ricard’s comments. He said, “once there was a French journalist, very cynical, and he said to me, “This thing about becoming a better person and all that, this is the politics of the ashtray,” not “this is the politics of the hash trade.”

An article on Page 30 this weekend about the Harvard astrophysicist, Avi Loeb, misstates the chronology leading up to a June 25, 2021 release of a government report on unidentified aerial phenomena. Senator Mark Warner released a statement about having been briefed on these phenomena the same day the government released its report, not before. And the article misstates how many Earth-like planets astronomers have found around sunlike stars. Though astronomers’ ongoing census of planets suggests that potentially habitable worlds are common, so far, they have found no Earth-like planets.

The Crime & Mystery column on Aug. 13 misstated the title of Joshua Moehling’s first novel. It is “And There He Kept Her,” not “Where They Found Her.”
