Abstract
We continue the investigation, that began in [3] and [4], into finite groups whose set of nontrivial conjugacy class sizes form an arithmetic progression. Let be a finite group and denote the set of conjugacy class sizes of by . Finite groups satisfying and are classified in [4] and [3], respectively, we demonstrate these examples are rather special by proving the following. There exists a finite group such that if and only if . Furthermore, there exists a finite group such that and is odd if and only if .
