Hydrogen abundances in WN stars have been derived by Conti et al. (1983) from a “semiquantitative” study of the Balmer-Pickering decrement. No clear correlation between hydrogen detection and spectral subtype could be established: stars with hydrogen and stars without detectable hydrogen are found among both, the WNE (“early”) as well as the WNL (”late”).
