The values of the effective temperature derived for Am stars by the infra-red flux method and from the Balmer line profiles are in very good agreement. They are hotter by more than 300K than the Teff given by Lane and Lester (1984) and cooler by about 200K than those obtained by Dworetsky et al (1986).
