Note that the generalized hexagons have geometric girth 6.

On p. 200-201 the (trivial) case of generalized 2-gons is not handled
correctly. On p. 200 line 4 of \(sc6.5, replace `partial linear space'

by `a geometry'; on line $-12$ replace `the partial linear space'

insert `2,'.

On p. 206, in Table 6.7, line (N2), the group should be
$3 sup 6 . 2 . M sub 12$.
In the statement of Theorem 6.6.1, replace `$mu = 1$' by `$mu <= 2$'.
In the subsequent discussion replace `$mu > 1$' by `$mu > 2$'.

CORRECTION.
On p.\|210, in the description of the Robertson-Wegner graph
it is stated that the full group has order 20 with three point orbits.
Gordon Royle pointed out that in fact the full group has order 120
and has two point orbits (of sizes 10, 20). Of course this means
that there is a much nicer description, and indeed there is:
The 30 vertices are the 20 vertices of the dodecahedron and the
10 4-subsets of the dodecahedron that have all internal distances 3;
the adjacencies are the obvious ones: the dodecahedron is an induced
subgraph of valency 3, each 4-subset is adjacent to its 4 elements
and to the antipodal 4-subset.
This description shows the (full) group $2 times Alt(5)$.

It is also stated that the subgraph induced by 3 pentagons and
3 pentagrams in the Hoffman-Singleton graph has automorphism group
of order 10. Gordon Royle points out that the order is 20 (with
orbit sizes {5,5,10,10}).

Part of the confusion is caused by the fact that the pictures drawn
in Wong [cages, a survey] do not correspond to the descriptions given.
Quoting Royle [email, 951222]: the Robertson-Wegner graph is Wong's
figure 4 (not 5); the 3 pentagons + 3 pentagraphs graph is Wong's
figure 5 (not 4). Wong's figure 6 is a (5,5)-cage constructed by
Foster, with group of order 30 and orbit sizes {15,15}.
It is rumoured that there is precisely one further (5,5)-cage.

On p. 210, in the discussion of the (7,6)-cage, change `Apparently ...

in fact $Aut GAM isom 3 cdot Alt (7) . 2$, acting transitively

cannot be interchanged by an automorphism fixing $gam$.)'
