The moderate dispersion (46 A/mm at H-alpha) image-tube spectrum (5800-7300 A) of the S star Pi Gru is found to exhibit several unidentified molecular features, in addition to the well known bands of the oxides of s-process elements. A list is presented of 28 measured unidentified red-degraded bands, of which six, at 5998, 6128, 6143, 6223, 6257, and 6557 A, are prominent. Of the reported 28 bands, 22 are observed for the first time. A discussion is included on the expected molecular sources of the unidentified features. The possible presence of two new molecules, PrO and NdO in Pi Gru is suggested.
