The differences of the elastic constants of strontium molybdate from those of calcium molybdate and calcium tungstate are investigated. A useful check on the measured velocities at a given angle to the z-axis for materials of tetragonal symmetry is illustrated. An inconsistency in the measured velocities in the xy plane is discussed. A new set of elastic constants has been calculated for strontium molybdate.
