Abstract: | I reanalyze the problem of the existence of longitudinal normals inside the symmetry planes of piezoelectric crystals belonging
to the symmetry class mm2. The equations determining components of longitudinal normals situated outside the symmetry planes for media of this symmetry
are discussed. It is proven that nonpiezoelectric media of rhombic symmetry could have 4 or 8 distinct acoustic axes. Examples
of nonpiezoelectric elastic media of monoclinic symmetry without acoustic axes are given. The method of determination of the
components of acoustic axes for piezoelectric media of arbitrary symmetry is presented. With the help of this method, I discuss
the problem of acoustic axes for piezoelectric media of the symmetry class mm2.
