The role of finite Larmor radius effects in the absorption of the extraordinary and ordinary mode at frequencies around the electron cyclotron frequency by a weakly relativistic thermal plasma of finite density is investigated. An inconsistent approximation regarding the absorption of the extraordinary mode at perpendicular propagation is corrected.
