In a recent paper in these Proceedings on the rational normal octavic surfaces with a double line in [5] I found four such surfaces, , and representable on a plane respectively by the systems of curves C5 (22, 19), C6(26, 14), and C7 (3, 28), with the base points in each case lying on an elliptic cubic. Inadvertently I overlooked a solution of certain indeterminate equations which leads to a fifth type represented by the plane system C9(38, 1).
