A reexamination of the X-ray diffraction data for the tetragonal form of KMo{sub 4}O{sub 6} prepared by fused salt electrolysis leads to the conclusion that the crystal structure is better described by using space group P4/mbm and not P{bar 4} as previously reported. However, refinement in the new space group does not result in any significant changes in the atomic arrangement. Possible reasons for the significant difference between the c lattice parameter of this form of KMo{sub 4}O{sub 6} and that prepared at high pressures are also discussed.
