  The maximally entangled mixed states of Munro, James, White, and Kwiat [Phys.
Rev. A {\bf 64} (2001) 030302] are shown to exhibit interesting features vis a
vis conditional entropic measures. The same happens with the Ishizaka and
Hiroshima states [Phys. Rev. A {\bf 62} 022310 (2000)], whose
entanglement-degree can not be increased by acting on them with logic gates.
Special types of entangled states that do not violate classical entropic
inequalities are seen to exist in the space of two qubits. Special meaning can
be assigned to the Munro {\it et al.} special participation ratio of 1.8.
