A strong emission feature at 2150 A has been observed by a rocket-borne spectrophotometer in an IBC II(+) aurora. This feature, commonly identified with the NO gamma (1,0) band, is comparable in intensity to the nearby N2 Vegard-Kaplan bands. Comparison of the observed spectra with a theoretically produced synthetic spectrum allows all but this feature to be assigned to N2 transitions. No bands of the v prime = 0 or 2 progressions or any other bands from v prime = 1 appear, casting serious doubt on the identification of this feature as the NO gamma (1,0) band.
