Abstract

Context. A number of cool magnetic Ap stars show a prominent feature at λ 6708 Å. Its identification with Li I remains controversial due to the lack of knowledge of the spectra of rare-earth elements that are strongly enhanced in peculiar stars so they can potentially provide an alternative identification.
