Recently the second species periodic solutions of the restricted three-body problem have been investigated in the limiting case mu equals O. The term second species solution is due to Poincare and is basically a Keplerian elliptical orbit about the larger primary mass which, at some time, makes a close passage by the smaller attracting mass. Our new result is that for mu equals O, second species orbits are critical if and only if the Jacobi constant C has an extremum. This paper explains this new analytical result in some detail and related it to the previous numerical determinations of stability.
