We present results on the thermodynamic and continuum limit of meson screening masses in the deconfined phase, using standard staggered and non-perturbatively clover-improved Wilson fermions in the quenched approximation with light quark masses. For two temperatures, 1.5 Tc and 3.0 Tc, it is found that on finite lattices screening masses differ between the actions. We study if both actions reproduce the same masses in the continuum by employing different methods of extrapolation to the thermodynamic and continuum limit.
