The authors consider the harmonious chromatic number of complete graphs, complete bigraphs, the Haj\'os union of the middle, line graphs of crown graphs, cycles and some well-known graphs, respectively. The relationship between harmonious colouring and covering and harmonious colouring and matching are considered too.}, reviewer = {Jozef Fiam\v cik (Pre\v sov)}, identifier = {05038587}, }
