Abstract
IN a previous letter (NATURE, 114, 642, November 1, 1924), one of the writers predicted a new group of nitrogen bands with an origin at about 65,000v, having for its initial state the final state of the first positive group, and for its final state the stable condition of the neutral molecule. A group of strong bands in almost precisely the predicted position has now been measured and analysed, but, contrary to expectations, the progressions of this group are not related to those of any other analysed group of nitrogen, or of any other substance.
