Line parameters (transition frequencies, line strengths, line widths, ground state energies and quantum identifications) for the nu2 and nu4 bands of (C-12)H4 and (C-13)H4 have been calculated for J-prime equal to or less than 25 using the simultaneous coupled fitting procedure of Gray and Robiette. Molecular constants for the nu2 band of (C-13)H4 were estimated from isotopic shifts from (C-12)H4 values. Agreement with laboratory spectra, where available, is always well within 1 kayser over the entire spectral range covered by the list. The most serious problem in comparison with laboratory data is the omission of lines belonging to 'hot' bands in this spectral region. This list is valuable in remote sensing problems for sorting out lines of trace species from weak methane lines and for determining the atmospheric opacity in relatively transparent spectral regions. Applications of the parameter list are demonstrated for remote sounding of the Jovian atmosphere.
