Summary: $\operatorname{B}^{(1)}$-groups are a class of torsionfree Abelian groups of finite rank, part of the main class of Butler groups. In the paper C. Metelli, {\it On direct sums of $\operatorname{B}^{(1)}$-groups\/}, Comment. Math. Univ. Carolinae {\bf 34} (1993), 587--591, the problem of direct sums of $\operatorname{B}^{(1)}$-groups was discussed, and a necessary and sufficient condition was given for the direct sum of two $\operatorname{B}^{(1)}$-groups to be a $\operatorname{B}^{(1)}$-group. While sufficiency holds, necessity was wrongly claimed; we solve here the problem, and in the process study a curious hierarchy among indecomposable direct summands of $\operatorname{B}^{(1)}$-groups. (English)
