We present a family of superintegrable (SI) systems which live on a Riemannian
surface of revolution and which exhibit one linear integral and two integrals of any integer
degree larger or equal to 2 in the momenta. When this degree is 2, one recovers a metric due
to Koenigs.
The local structure of these systems is under control of a linear ordinary differential equation of
order $n$ which is homogeneous for even integrals and weakly inhomogeneous for odd integrals.
The form of the integrals is explicitly given in the so-called “simple” case (see Definition 2).
Some globally defined examples are worked out which live either in $\mathbb{H}^2$ or in $\mathbb{R}^2$.
