Abstract
A general result concerning noncompleteness of location families of pr obability measures on Euclidean space is pointed out. Examples include boundedly complete families, such as those generated by certain scale mixtures of the standard Gaussian distribution. These examples illumi nate completeness criteria for location families and compare favourabl y in simplicity with previously known examples of incomplete boundedly complete (nonlocation) families.
