In this paper, the (C-12)/(C-13) ratio in the interstellar cloud toward the star Mu Normae (HD 149038) is determined by estimating the abundance of (C-13)H(+) relative to (C-12)H(+). The equivalent widths of the lines for these ions were determined at 4232 and 3957 A. For the (C-12)H(+) lines, these values were 26.988 + or - 0.108 mA at 4232 A and 15.561 + or - 0.250 mA, respectively, and for (C-13)H(+) the corresponding values were 0.556 + or - 0.0 mA and 0.202 + or - 0.171 mA. The (C-12)/(C-13) ratio obtained from the 4232 A line was 56.9 + or - 6.4, while that from the 3957 A line was 85 + or - 72.
