Scientific paper

Seven doubly photographed meteors reported in the literature are shown to be members of the Delta Aurigids, which now appear to extend from September 29 to October 18. Visual observations from the second half of activity in 1980 reveal a zenith hourly rate of no more than 2 or 3. The mean orbital elements of the stream point to an unknown short period (115 years) retrograde comet as a parent.
