In the original paper, Salsi et al. (2020), there is a mistake in the calculation of the uncertainty on the angular diameter estimate. Equation (8) should be written as follows:

σ θ LD a , b , phot = 2 ln ( 10 ) θ LD σ θ LD a , b 2 + σ θ LD phot 2 . $$ \sigma _{\theta _{\mathrm{LD} _\mathrm{a,b,phot} }} = 2 \ln (10)\theta _{\mathrm{LD} }\sqrt{\sigma _{\theta _{\mathrm{LD} _\mathrm{a,b} }}^2+ \sigma _{\theta _{\mathrm{LD} _\mathrm{phot} }}^2}. $$(1)

The photometric part of the uncertainty, σθLDphot (Eq. (10) in the paper), also contains an error. The correct formula isfollowing:

σ θ LD phot = ( 0.1 + a ) 2 σ V 2 + a 2 σ K 2 + ( 0.1 + 0.881 a ) 2 σ A V 2 . $$ \sigma _{\theta _{\mathrm{LD} _\mathrm{phot} }} = \sqrt{(0.1+a)^2 \sigma _V^2 + a^2 \sigma _K ^2 + (0.1 + 0.881a)^2 \sigma _{A_{V}}^2}. $$(2)

Only considering arbitrary uncertainties of 0.022 mag on both V and K magnitudes leads to a precision of 1.30% on the angular diameter, and not 1.70% as indicated in the paper. The conclusions in the paper remain unchanged.
