Low-dispersion and high-dispersion IUE satellite observations of the symbiotic star KX TrA, carried out on May 7, 1990, are reported. The low-dispersion data show no significant changes from the observation data obtained a decade ago. Resonantly excited high-excitation Fe II emission lines are seen in the UV spectra of KX TrA, suggesting the existence of a very hot (greater than 60,000 K) subdwarf or white dwarf in the system. The S-type symbiotic KX TrA exhibits a UV spectrum that is nearly identical to that of the D-type symbiotic V1016 Cyg.
