Chemiluminescent optical spectra of potassium chloride and potassium bromide have been observed in dilute flames. In the KCl spectra 56 ``fluctuation bands'' could be resolved. A table of 66 such bands were measured for KBr, extending the observed spectral range by about 1000 Aring; to the red for this molecule. Possible upperhyphen;state potential curves accounting for the observations are proposed.
