Venera 9 and 10 observations of 5577-A nightglow are in agreement with direct measurements of electron fluxes on the night side of the planet in the presence of a magnetic field with an inclination not exceeding 18 deg. The value of ionization by electrons, according to Pioneer-Venus data, varies depending on the assumption made concerning the character of the electron spectrum at energies exceeding 50 eV. Venera measurements of electron fluxes are an order of magnitude higher in the absence of a magnetic field and agree with radio measurements only in the case of a magnetic field with an inclination not exceeding 5 deg. It is suggested that ionization by interplanetary glow and in the 584-A helium line and meteor ionization might be of importance in maintaining the lower maximum of the ionosphere.
