A cograph is a P-4-free graph. We first give a short proof of the fact that 0 (-1) belongs to the spectrum of a connected cograph (with at least two vertices) if and only if it contains duplicate (resp. coduplicate) vertices. As a consequence, we next prove that the polynomial reconstruction of graphs whose vertex-deleted subgraphs have the second largest eigenvalue not exceeding root 5-1/2 is unique.
