Six printing errors are corrected in the Report by Tolédano et al. [ Acta Cryst. (2001), A 57 , 614–626]. The first is in 2.1 , the fourth last sentence of which should read ``Although such nicknames do not always describe the magnetic character of the substance explicitly, since `AF' for example may be mistaken for antiferroelectric, this lack is compensated for by the fifth and sixth fields (see the examples in §§3.1–3.5).'' The second is in 3.4 , second field of the AF phase, which should read `<260 K'. The third is in 4.5 , the final sentence of which should be `However, certain materials display ferroic properties in the incommensurate phase ( cf. §5.3)'. The fourth is in 5.1 , sixth field of phase II, which should read `Incommensurate. Modulation: δ ~ 0.78. Displacive modulation.'. The fifth is in 6 , the third sentence of which should read ``While accepting this definition, it is necessary to point out, however, that the boundary between phases in the examples below need not be `thermodynamically abrupt' ( i.e. involve a latent heat and discontinuities in the physical quantities).''. The final error is in 6.1 , sixth field of the FT phase, which should read `FT | 0.45 < x < 1 | P 4 mm (99) | Z = 1 | Ferroelectric and ferroelastic | All phases pseudo‐cubic perovskites. No perovskite octahedral tilts; 6 variants.'.
