Medium-resolution (R ˜ 500), K-band two-dimensional spectra are presented for the planetary nebula NGC 7027. The spatial distributions for the two bright unidentified lines near 2.199 and 2.287 μm were revealed and examined compared to those of other emission lines. It was spatially confirmed that the unidentified lines do not arise from neutral molecules, but ionized species. The ionization potentials of their parent ions are lower than that of He II, and comparable to or higher than that of Brγ. Our results support the previous studies of identification of parent species, on the condition that the carriers of the unidentified lines are partly excited by collisions.
