Abstract:
    New identifications of about 2200 FeI lines between 170nm and 5{mu}m
    (59000 to 2000 cm^-1^) due to highly-excited configurations are
    presented. These have been observed in hollow cathode lamps using
    Fourier transform and grating spectroscopy. About 1700 if the lines
    have been observed in the solar spectrum. A companion paper presents
    the experimental energy levels.

Note (2):
    Intensity in arbitrary units. These are given as log(I) for FT
    spectra. Grating intensities are from the continuous hollow cathode
    spectra, except those in italics, which are from the pulsed hollow
    cathode spectra. Symbols are:
      d:  diffuse
      b:  blended
      *:  unresolved
      ?:  questionable
Note (5):
    Abbreviated term designations are taken from
    Sugar & Corliss (1985, J. Phys. Chem. Ref. Data 14 suppl. 2),
    Brown et al.  (1988OSAJB...5.2125B)
    or are listed in table 1 of paper 1.

   Lines between 4788 cm-1 and 8375 cm-1 are marked
   `P' if a line is present in the atlases of Delbouille et al. (1981,
       Kitt Peak Obs.) or Livingston and Wallace (1991, Tucson),
       but is not listed in Biemont et al. (1985A&AS...61..107B)
   `T' if they are in a region of telluric absorption.
   The ionization stage is neutral unless otherwise specified.
