This is an erratum to the paper ‘On the diversity of superluminous supernovae: ejected mass as the dominant factor’, published in MNRAS, 2015, 452.

We have noticed that some of the supernova peak magnitudes in Table 1 are given in the wrong rows. The error affected the rows ‘PS1-11ap’ to ‘PS1-10ky’, with each magnitude displaced downwards by one cell. The nature of this error is purely typographic. Originally, the objects were grouped into high- and low-redshift bins, rather than by wavelength coverage; the error occurred when moving PS1-11ap from the high-z group into the ‘Gold’ coverage group. This does not affect any of the other tables, figures, or analysis in the paper.
