The high resolution ultraviolet spectrum of AG Dra was observed with IUE in April and August 1981 at phases 0.50 and O.69 according to the Meinunger (1979, Inf. Bull. Var. Stars No.1611) U-light curve. The UV spectrum of the star appears rather different from that of the other classical symbiotic stars. The low resolution IUE spectrum of AG Dra shown in figure 1. The continuum is rather strong with respect to the emission lines and detectable at high resolution. Many intense interstellar lines are present, in spite of the low reddening of the star (E(B-V)=0.06, according to the depth of the 2200A interstellar band).
