B. Lyot, C.R., 202, 1259 (1936). Lyot gives 7891.60±0.2A. as a new line. The observations of Curtis and Burns in 1925 do not seem to be recorded in any of the more recent lists of coronal lines. I assume provisionally their line at 7896 is the same as Lyot's, allowing for the relative inaccuracies of the measurements made in 1925.
