Let \(X\to {\mathbb P}^2\) be a Galois cover with Galois group \(S_3\) whose branch locus \(B\) is a plane quintic. Then there is a component \(C\) of \(B\) along which the cover has ramification order \(3\) and \(C\) is either a cubic or a line. The latter case was classified in [\textit{H. Tokunaga}, J. Math. Kyoto Univ. 44, No. 2, 255--270 (2004; Zbl 1084.14019)], where 18 types are listed. In the paper under review, the authors study how these covers can obtained by the following procedure: 1) pulling back by a suitable rational map the triple cover of \({\mathbb C}^2\) defined by \(z^3+xz+y=0\), where \(x,y\) are affine coordinates; 2) taking normalization and Galois closure of the cover constructed in 10. For each of the 18 types, an explicit descriptions of the rational map in 1) is given.
