In this paper we consider complex doubles of compact Klein surfaces that have large automorphism groups. It is known that a bordered Klein surface of algebraic genus g > 2 has at most 12(g − 1) automorphisms. Surfaces for which this bound is sharp are said to have maximal symmetry. The complex double of such a surface X is a compact Riemann surface X+ of genus g and it is easy to see that if G is the group of automorphisms of X then C2 × G is a group of automorphisms of X+. A natural question is whether X+ can have a group that strictly contains C2 × G. In [8] C. L. May claimed the following interesting result: there is a unique Klein surface X with maximal symmetry for which Aut X+ properly contains C2 × Aut X (where Aut X+ denotes the group of conformal and anticonformal automorphisms of X+).

A problem of special interest in the study of automorphism groups of surfaces are the bounds of the orders of the groups as a function of the genus of the surface.May has proved that a Klein surface with boundary of algebraic genus p has at most 12(p–1) automorphisms [9].In this paper we study the highest possible prime order for a group of automorphisms of a Klein surface. This problem was solved for Riemann surfaces by Moore in [10]. We shall use his results for studying the Klein surfaces that are not Riemann surfaces. The more general result that we obtain is the following: if X is a Klein surface of algebraic genus p, and G is a group of automorphisms of X, of prime order n, then n ≤ p + 1.

LetXbe a Klein surface [1], that is,Xis a surface with boundary მXtogether with a dianalytic structure onX. A homeomorphismf:X→XofXonto itself that is dianalytic will be called anautomorphismofX.
