The vertical stability character of the families of short and long period solutions around the triangular equilibrium points of the restricted three-body problem is examined. For three values of the mass parameter less than equal to the critical value of Routh mu(R), i.e., for mu = 0.000953875 (sun-Jupiter), mu = 0.01215 (earth-moon) and mu = mu(R) = 0.038521, it is found that all such solutions are vertically stable. For mu above mu(R), vertical stability is studied for a number of 'limiting' orbits extended to mu = 0.45. The last limiting orbit computed by Deprit for mu = 0.044 is continued to a family of periodic orbits into which the well known families of long and short period solutions merge. The stability characteristics of this family are also studied.
