The authors consider the number of Weierstrass points on a Riemann surface given by an equation of the form \(y^7=x^{m_1}(x-1)^{m_2}(x-z)^{m_3}\), where \(z\) is a complex number different from 0 and 1, \(1\leq m_i\leq 6\), and \(m_1+m_2+m_3\) is not divisible by 7. In a previous article [Int. J. Differ. Equ. Appl. 2, No. 2, 199--208 (2001; Zbl 1057.14039)], the authors studied the case when \(m_1=m_2=m_3=1\). Here, they completely settle the question of the number of Weierstass points in all other cases depending on whether \(z\) satisfies certain explicit polynomials. They also give the number of isomorphism classes of such surfaces that have the same number of Weierstrass points when this number is finite.
