Scientific paper

Wolf-Rayet bands centered at 4650 and 5810 A are detected in the spectrum of the core of an H II region in the dwarf, metal poor, irregular galaxy IC 1613. The spectrum shows a weak blue continuum and the emission lines of the region with relative intensities characteristic of high ionization, low metal content gas. The emission features both WC and WN characteristics with unusually large equivalent widths of greater than 300 A, and the WR star may account for the ionization of the H II region.
