We note that any homogeneous polynomial of degree <inline-formula><tex-math id="M17">\begin{document}$ 4 $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula> after a linear change of variables and a rescaling can be written as one of the previous polynomials. We remark that for the polynomial <inline-formula><tex-math id="M18">\begin{document}$ q_1^4+6\mu q_1^2q_2^2+q_2^4 $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula> when <inline-formula><tex-math id="M19">\begin{document}$ \mu\in\left\{-5/3, -2/3\right\} $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula> we only can prove that it has no a polynomial first integral.</p>
