In an analysis of term splitting in the absorption spectrum of 24 samples of praseodymium chloride, Judd (Proc. Roy. Soc. (London) A241, 414(1957)) found all but two of the authors' results to be constant with his. A discussion of reconciliation is presentrd, and the authors point out that the error is due to a mistake in descrimination between electronic transitions and the weak vibrationally coupled lines.
