Let \(G\) be a nonabelian finite \(p\)-group. If \(|G|\) divides \(|\Aut(G)|\) then \(G\) is called an LA-group. It is a longstanding and heavily studied conjecture that \(G\) is an LA-group. In this respect it is interesting when \(G\) has few \(p\)-automorphisms; for groups of maximal class this was studied by \textit{I. Malinowska} [J. Group Theory 4, No. 4, 395-400 (2001; Zbl 0991.20017)]. The paper deals with \(G\) for which \(|G|=|\Aut(G)|\), if \(G\) has cyclic Frattini, then \(G\) is isomorphic to either \(D_8\), \(S_{16}\) or \(M_{2^n}\); furthermore, if \(G\) is of class 2 and has cyclic centre then \(p=2\) and \(\Aut(G)\) has a cyclic subgroup \(C\) together with the group of central automorphisms \(\Aut_c(G)\) generating a subgroup of index 2 in \(\Aut(G)\), and \(\Aut_c(G)\cap C\) is of order 2.
