    In modular representation theory of finite groups one of the most important and interesting problems is to prove (or find out a counter-example) Donovan's conjecture. It was first stated in public in \textit{J. L. Alperin}'s celebrated survey [Proc. Symp. Pure Math. 37, 369--375 (1980; Zbl 0449.20019)]. In the article, he puts a conjecture as Conjecture~M: Fix an arbitrary prime \(p\) and a finite \(p\)-group \(D\). Then, up to Morita equivalences, there are only a finite number of \(p\)-block algebras of finite groups with a defect group \(D\). The conjecture has not yet been solved. See information in [\textit{C. W. Eaton} et al., Block library, \url{https://wiki .manchester .ac .uk /blocks/}]. In particular, when \(D\) is an arbitrary abelian \(2\)-group, Donovan's conjecture is proved by \textit{C. W. Eaton} and \textit{M. Livesey} [Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 147, No. 3, 963--970 (2019; Zbl 1430.20011)] over an algebraically closed field \(k\) of characteristic \(2\), and then even over a suitable discrete valuation ring whose residue field is \(k\) [\textit{C. W. Eaton} et al., Math. Z. 295, No. 1--2, 249--264 (2020; Zbl 1481.20028)]. Now, the paper under review concerns and looks closely at those \(2\)-blocks \(B\) when their defect group \(D\) is elementary ablian of order \(32\). The author gives a precise list of \(B\)s up to Morita equivalences. Actually, there are \(31\) Morita equivalence classes when the \(B\)s are the principal \(2\)-block algebras and three when \(B\) is non-principal \(2\)-block algebras. A comment on the references: the page numbers of [18] is missing.
