  The limiting temperature $T_{lim}$ of a series of nuclei is calculated
employing a set of microscopic nuclear Equations of State (EoS). It is shown
that the value of $T_{lim}$ is sensitive to the nuclear matter Equation of
State used. Comparison with the values extracted in recent phenomenological
analysis appears to favour a definite selection of EoS' s. On the basis of this
phenomenological analysis, it seems therefore possible to check the microscopic
calculations of the nuclear EoS at finite temperature, which is hardly
accessible through other experimental informations.
