This paper considers electromagnetic Vlasov instabilities driven by electron temperature anisotropies in a homogeneous, nonrelativistic magnetized plasma. Numerical solutions of the full linear dispersion equation for bi-Maxwellian distribution functions and instabilities propagating parallel to the magnetic field are presented. Parametric dependences of the maximum growth rates of the electron fire hose and whistler anisotropy instabilities are given.
