Recent developments of EUV diagnostics from transitions in Boron-like ions, C II, N III, O IV, Ne VI, Mg VIII, Al IX, Si X, and S XII, are discussed based on new atomic data (Zhang, Graziani & Pradhan (1994)) and systematic theoretical calculations of line intensity ratios (Peng & Pradhan 1995). The available EUV and UV lines which are good temperature and density diagnostics are summarized. Possible applications of these lines to the investigation of the physical conditions in astrophysical objects are proposed.
