  We consider dissipative strongly competitive systems
$\dot{x}_{i}=x_{i}f_{i}(x)$ of ordinary differential equations. It is known
that for a wide class of such systems there exists an invariant attracting
hypersurface $\Sigma$, called the carrying simplex. In this note we give an
amenable condition for $\Sigma$ to be a $C^{1}$ submanifold-with-corners. We
also provide conditions, based on a recent work of M. Bena\"{\i}m "On invariant
hypersurfaces of strongly monotone maps", J. Differential Equations 137 (1997),
302-319, guaranteeing that $\Sigma$ is of class $C^{k+1}$.
