Two index laws for fractional integrals and derivatives, which have been extensively studied by E. R. Love, are shown to be special cases of an index law for general powers of certain differential operators, by means of the theory developed in a previous paper. Discussion of the two index laws, which are rather different in appearance, can thus be unified.
