    A family \(\mathcal{S}\) of \(d\)-dimensional subspaces of \(\mathrm{PG}(m,2)\) is a \(d\)-dimensional dual hyperoval in \(\mathrm{PG}(m,2)\) if the following conditions are satisfied: (1) any two distinct members of \(\mathcal{S}\) intersect in a projective point; (2) any three mutually distinct members of \(\mathcal{S}\) intersect trivially; (3) the members of \(\mathcal{S}\) generate \(\mathrm{PG}(m,2)\); (4) there are exactly \(2^{d+1}\) members of \(\mathcal{S}\). In the paper under review, the author determines the automorphism group of a dual hyperoval which he constructed in [\textit{H. Taniguchi}, Discrete Math. 309, No. ~2, 418--429 (2009; Zbl 1169.51014)].
