الوصف: We provide a complete characterization of a subclass of means of positive operators in the class of symmetric Kubo-Ando means that was first introduced and studied in L. Moln\'ar, ``Characterizations of certain means of positive operators," Linear Algebra Appl. 567 (2019) 143-166. In Theorem 6 of that paper, he gives a characterization of this subclass (which we call the Moln\'ar class of means) in terms of the operator monotone functions representing the means, which includes the geometric mean. Furthermore, he leaves open the problem to determine if the geometric mean is the only such mean in that subclass. Here we give an alternative characterization of the Moln\'ar class of means in terms of the boundary-values of bounded harmonic functions on certain rectangles which completely characterizes this class of means. Moreover, we use this to construct an explicit example of a mean in the subclass that is not the geometric means thereby solving the open problem of L. Moln\'ar.
