Level densities are required at excitation energies where discrete level information is not available or incomplete to get a reliable theoretical analysis of cross sections, spectra, and angular distributions. The total reaction cross sections of some lanthanides (Pr-141, Nd-142, Sm-144, Eu-153, Gd-160, Tb-159, Ho-165, Lu-175) were calculated using TALYS 1.2 code for gamma-induced reactions through the five level density models in the incident gamma energy range from 5 to 30 MeV. All calculations from the present study were compared with each other and with the experimental data obtained from EXFOR library. The total photo-neutron reaction cross-section values obtained from the model calculations and experimental measurements taken from EXFOR confirm the presence of systematical disagreements reported in the literature, except Ho-165 case where one can see a satisfactory agreement.
