    The authors observe that a theorem by Viaclovsky and the second author (2000) regarding locally conformally flat vector fields on a locally conformally flat compact Riemannian manifold of dimension \(\geq 3\) admits an interpretation in terms of Gauss-Bonnet curvatures (introduced by H. Weyl in 1939). The theorem is also generalized.
