In the original publication [1], there was a mistake in Figure 3c,e as published. The corrected Figure 3 appears below.
Figure 3. Fluorescence microscopy images of NIH–3T3 fibroblast cells cultured on different substrates after 48 h: (a,b) M. menelaus, (c) P. u. telegonus (blue region), (d) P. u. telegonus (fiber region), (e) O. c. lydius, and culture dish (f) as a control. 500 cells were measured on each substrate; (g) Schematic diagram of the orientation angle of the cells on the substrates, the dash line stands for the direction of cells orientation, the red arrows stand for the direction of grooves/ridges; and, (h) represents the frequency distribution of orientation angle of cells cultured on different substrates after 48 h. The area of 500 cells was measured on each substrate.
The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
