Due to an error that occurred during the preparation of the online version of Table 1 of the published article, the radial velocity of the brightest cluster member of cluster AS1063 was incorrectly published as "04176n" while it should actually read "104176n," the trailing "n" meaning that it was taken from the literature. Due to our own error, in Table 2 the name of the galaxy in Abell S1071 was incorrectly specified as ESO 603−G02, while it should actually read ESO 603−G025. Corrected versions of Tables 1 and 2 appear below, and the corrected versions of the full machine-readable tables appear online. We thank Marion Schmitz of the NASA-IPAC Extragalactic Database for bringing both errors to our attention.

Notes. aBM types were converted from roman numbers I, I–II,..., III, to 1, 2,..., 5, and are given in parentheses if this cluster has a discarded BCM candidate in Table 2. bAppended with (n) if taken from literature, (e) if photometric estimate, (:) if poor spectrum, (*) factor 2–4 different from photometric estimate. cTaken from literature whenever vcl is taken from literature. dAppended with (*) if taken from Andernach and Tago's database, (n) if taken from literature, (:) if poor spectrum.

Notes. aOnly one radial velocity for a representative cluster component is given for clusters with known superposition; we made sure that vBCM is incompatible with all redshift components known to us; appended with "n" if taken from literature, ":" if uncertain, and "e" if photometric estimate; an asterisk indicates a value that is a factor of 2–4 lower than the photometric estimate. bAppended with an asterisk if taken from Andernach's database, with "b" if in the background to the cluster, and with "e" if photometric estimate.
