The recent compilation of atomic data by Mendoza (1983) has been used to construct three-level atom formulae for the emission coefficients for forbidden N II, O I, O II, O III, Ne III, S II, S III, and Ar III as a function of temperature and density. Equations for determining forbidden O II and S II densities and forbidden N II and O III temperatures are presented also. The formulae generally predict emission coefficients and ratios to within 5 percent of the five-level atom calculations, so should be of considerable value for analyses of gaseous nebulae spectra.
