The spectrum of a finite group is the set of element orders of this group. A group \(G\) is said to be unrecognizable by its spectrum if there are infinitely many pairwise non-isomorphic finite groups that have the same spectrum as \(G.\) It was conjectured that every finite simple classical group \(G\) which is unrecognizable by its spectrum is contained in the following list: \(\mathrm{PSL}(3,3),\) \(\mathrm{PSU}(3,q),\) \(\mathrm{PSU}(5,2),\) \(\mathrm{PSp}(4,q),\) \(\mathrm{PSp}(8,q),\) and \(\mathrm{P}\Omega(9,q).\) In all these cases, except for \(G =\mathrm{PSp}(8,7^m),\) it was proved in [\textit{M. A. Grechkoseeva} et al., Commun. Math. Stat. 11, No. 2, 169--194 (2023; Zbl 1520.20052)] that \(G\) is unrecognizable. The author shows that \(\mathrm{PSp}(8,7^m)\) are not unrecognizable. In fact any of these groups is uniquely determined by its spectrum in the class of all finite groups.
