Spectral and statistical data show that the intergalactic extinction is a continuous function of wavelength and suggest that the extinction is caused by interstellar dust. Irregular gravitational forces and other physical processes could pull matter from galaxies, or the dust may be primordial matter. An attempt is made to apply the Kwast theta-quotient to analytically predict the presence of an obscuring dust cloud in a scantly-populated region of the sky by using clustering correlations. Sample computations for a 1.34 sq deg of sky in the Jagiellonian Field Catalog demonstrate that large error magnitudes persist in the calculations. It is concluded that the current database on interstellar extinction and galactic spectra is insufficient for identifying obscuring dust clouds in holes between galactic clusters.
