The 2s21S0–2s2p 3P1 intercombination line at 1218.34 Å of Be-like O V has been observed in IUE spectra of gaseous nebulae such as RR Tel (Doschek & Feibelman 1993). However, the forbidden line at 1213 Å has not been detected to date in any astrophysical object, with the possible exception of the Sun, where Sandlin, Brueckner & Tousey (1977) very tentatively identify the line at 1213.90 Å in an off-limb spectrum.
