    A Hopf algebra has the Chevalley property if its Jacobson radical is a Hopf ideal. Finite dimensional triangular Hopf algebras with the Chevalley property are characterized by \textit{N. Andruskiewitsch, P. Etingof}, and \textit{S. Gelaki} [Mich. Math. J. 49, No. 2, 277-298 (2001; Zbl 1016.16029)]. They can be obtained by twisting a triangular Hopf algebra with \(R\)-matrix of rank \(\leq 2\); these are in turn ``modifications'' of finite dimensional super-group algebras. In the paper under review, the authors give a more explicit classification of finite dimensional triangular Hopf algebras with the Chevalley property, parametrizing isomorphism classes of such Hopf algebras via certain septuples of data. Recently, the authors proved that any finite dimensional triangular complex Hopf algebra is a ``modification'' of a finite dimensional super-group algebra, thus it has the Chevalley property; see [\textit{P. Etingof, S. Gelaki}, ``The classification of finite-dimensional triangular Hopf algebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0'', \url{http://arxiv.org/abs/math.QA/0202258}]. Their proof relies on a deep characterization of symmetric categories of representations of super-groups obtained by \textit{P. Deligne} [``Catégories tensorielles'', \url{http://www.math.ias.edu/~phares/deligne/preprints.html}, February 2002]. In conclusion, it is now known that all finite dimensional triangular complex Hopf algebras are classified by the list given in the paper under review.
