Comment on ``Shell Filling and Spin Effects in a Few Electron Quantum Dot'' [PRL 77, 3613 (1996)]

We briefly report on calculated addition spectra for electrons in a circular quantum dot with perpendicular magnetic field. We compare our current density functional theory calculations with recent experiments by Tarucha et al. [PRL 77, 3613 (1996)]. We find a very good qualitative agreement of the structures and find an additional effect caused by Hund's first rule in magnetic field, which gives rise to new substructures not discussed in the paper by Tarucha.
