For the Liénard systems with fm and gn polynomials of degree m and n, respectively, we present explicit systems having algebraic limit cycles in the cases m ⩾ 2 and n ⩾ 2m + 1 and m ⩾ 3 and n = 2m. Also we prove that the Liénard system for m = 3 and n = 5 has no hyperelliptic limit cycles. This shows that the result of theorem 1(c) of Zoladek (1998 Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 350 1681–701) on the existence of algebraic limit cycles of the Liénard system is not correct. Moreover, we characterize all hyperelliptic limit cycles of the Liénard systems for m = 4 and n = 6 or n = 7. For m > 4 and n = 2m − 1 or n = 2m − 2 we prove that there are Liénard systems which have [m/2] − 1 algebraic limit cycles, where the [·] denotes the integer part function.
