    The author considers the following parametric family of Thue equations \[ X^3-n(n^2+n+3)X^2Y-(n^3+2n^2+3n+3)XY^2-Y^3=\pm 1, \] with \(n\geq 0\). In particular he proves that the only solutions are \((X,Y)=\pm (1,0),\pm (0,1)\) for \(n\geq 1\). In case of \(n=0\) he finds eight further solutions.
