The authors review the identifications of Fe XVII transitions between the 2s22p53s, 3p, and 3d configurations recently published by Jupén. The review is based on examining spectroheliograms of solar flares obtained by a Naval Research Laboratory instrument on Skylab (S082-A). The authors agree with the majority of identifications given by Jupén, but find different wavelengths for a few of the lines. The relative intensities of the lines are qualitatively in agreement with calculations. The authors also identify a broad line at 1153.20 Å with the 2p53s3P0→2p53s3P1 forbidden transition of Fe XVII. This line was found in flare spectra obtained by the NRL slit spectrograph on Skylab (S082-B).
