    In the paper under review it has been verified, by an exhaustive computer search, that in PG\((2, 25)\) the smallest size of a complete arc is \(12\) and that complete \(19\)-arcs and \(20\)-arcs do not exist. Therefore, the spectrum of the sizes of the complete arcs in PG\((2, 25)\) is completely determined. Moreover, the classification of the smallest complete arcs in PG\((2, 25)\) is also given: the number of non-equivalent complete \(12\)-arcs is \(606\) and for each of them the automorphism group has been found and some geometrical properties have been studied.
