    Let p: \(E\to B\) be a principal G-bundle, and denote by G(p) the group of all equivariant automorphisms of (E,p,B) over B. Assuming that B has a numerable cover \({\mathcal U}=\{U_{\alpha}\), \(\alpha\in \Lambda \}\), with respect to which every principal G-bundle over B is locally trivial, they show that G(p) is a subgroup of a larger group that depends only upon \({\mathcal U}\). Moreover, they classify these subgroups up to conjugacy.
