*

, Lines affected by atmosphere. 

? , Unlikely or doubtful identification. 

, These unidentified lines are seen in other PN, i.e., IC 4997, NGC 7027, and NGC 7662. 

CPM , Identification by Cuesta, Phillips, and Mampaso (7), but other lines, such as 6396 [Mn v], 6463/67 N iii, and 6853 [Mn vi], are not seen!
