Venera 15 and 16 spectra of different latitude zones of Venus in the 250-1650/cm range are analyzed. It is shown that differences in the spectra of different zones can be partly explained by differences in the structure of the cloud layer. At 'low' latitudes (phi less than 60 deg) the cloud layer is sparse, and diurnal variations are not observed. At latitudes of 65-78 deg, a longitudinally extended but open region of elevated particle concentration exists. The upper cloud boundary in the hot-spot region (phi = 78-82 deg) is located lower than in other parts of the planet.
