Three micron spectra at medium resolution of a few IRAS sources having PAH features have been obtained. These spectra reveal the presence, beyond the strong 3.3 micron feature, of several additional weaker emission features at 3.4, 3.46, 3.51 and 3.56 microns. These weaker bands are superimposed on a broad emission plateau extending at least from 3.35 to 3.6 microns. For the emission bands in the 3.4-3.6 micron region, two possible interpretations are extensively discussed. New laboratory spectra are presented to discuss both hypotheses and observational tests are proposed.
