THE existence of recombination lines of highly excited states of hydrogen is well established through recent radio observations1,2 of various galactic H II regions. This communication reports the detection and analysis of a new line n167-->n166 (1,424.736 Mc/s) in M17, which extends our previous results1 to lower frequencies. This particular n-->n-1 transition lies closest to the well-known 21-cm hyperfine line of interstellar hydrogen. We also suggest a convenient notation for the various transitions.
