Abstract
Nova Vul 1984 no2 has been again observed at Observatoire de Haute-Provence in the autumn of 1985, i.e. 270–295 days after maximum. It was then in the nebular phase. The spectra cover the blue-violet and the near infrared regions. Over 50 lines and blends have been identified and are given in Table 2. No clear pattern is observed in the emission bands of a width of about 1450 km/sec. The most conspicuous features observed are the forbidden NeIII and NeV lines. The infrared region is dominated by a very strong He I 1083nm emission.
