We present and discuss some recent results ofgroundbased IR spectroscopie studies ofstarburst and Seyfert galaxies through the 1-5 μm atmospheric windows. Of particular interest in this spectral range are H and He recombination lines, stellar CO and other absorption bands which can provide information on the stellar populations; [SiVI, VII, IX], [CaVIII] and [SIX] coronal lines in Seyferts and [FeII] and ro-vibrational H2 lines from circumnuclear gas excited by high energy photons and winds associated with recently formed hot stars, SN/SNR and AGN. Recent progress in the latter case has largely been achieved through the first use of 2D arrays to obtain maps and images of the extended line emission in several relatively nearby galaxies.
