The identification of the partial wave parameter l-bar of the J/sub z/CCS approximation in molecular scattering theory is considered, and it is shown that if one chooses l-bar=l' (the final orbital angular momentum) rather than l-bar=J (the total angular momentum) the full body-fixed expression for the scattering amplitude reduces directly to the simple formula used by McGuire and Kouri. Results are cited that show that l-bar=l' is not only simple, but physically reasonable, and gives much better results than l-bar=J.
