In a recent letter (PRL 95, 190601 (2005)), T.M. Rocha Filho and coworkers address the very interesting issue of the entropic form to be used for Hamiltonians with long-range interactions. In our opinion the letter misses several points quite debated in the recent literature which are of fundamental importance for a complete discussion of this problem. Moreover it contains several statements which are not true or not corroborated by any evidence. In this comment we discuss these arguments and severely question the generality of the conclusions of this letter.
