The parameter ranges of the neutrino flavor mass difference Δ2m21 and magnetic moment μ responsible for a solar-neutrino flux deficit are investigated in the adiabatic approximation, assuming a large magnetic field, B=105 G. A resonant effect becomes dominant for Δ2m21>3.5×10-8 eV2 and decreases for smaller Δ2m21. The lower bound on the neutrino magnetic moment is around μ~(1.5-4)×10-12μB, in which range Δ2m21<~2×10-8 eV2. For Δ2m21>(4-5)×10-6 eV2 the flux deficit becomes unacceptably large (0.7), ruling out the present scenario. In the limit of degenerate neutrinos, where no resonant effect is present, a deficit greater than 0.3 implies μ>~3.5×10-12μB and has an upper bound ~=0.50.
