In Theorem 8 of our article “Outer-1-Planar Graphs” (Algorithmica 74(4), pp. 1293–1320, [1]), we erroneously claim that every outer 1-planar graph admits a planar visibility representation in \(\mathcal {O}(n \log n)\) area. This statement has recently been disproved by Biedl (GD 2020, LNCS 12590, pp. 526–528, [2]), who showed that there are outer 1-planar graphs with an area requirement of \(\Omega (n^2)\) in any planar polyline drawing. The other results of our article remain unaffected.
