A compact bordered Klein surface X of algebraic genus g ≥ 2 has maximal symmetry [6] if its automorphism group A(X) is of order 12(g — 1), the largest possible. The bordered surfaces with maximal symmetry are clearly of special interest and have been studied in several recent papers ([6] and [9] among others).
