In a recent paper (13), we introduced the class of strongly E-reflexive inversesemigroups. This class was shown to coincide with the class of those inverse semigroups which are semilattices of E-unitary inverse semigroups. In particular, therefore, E-unitary inverse semigroups and semilattices of groups are strongly E-reflexive, and in fact so are subdirect products of these two types of semigroups.
