In this paper the Clifford groups PCT(pm), p > 2, PCG(pm) and CS'(pm), and the factor groups ½CS' (pm), which were defined in Paper I of this series (Bolt, Room and Wall [1]), are considered as transformations of projective [pm–1] over the complex field, C. We note that the geometrical results are the same if any of the corresponding groups CT, CG or GG and CS, respectively, are considered instead.
