The λ2200 extinction feature has been measured from ANS observations of 30 stars. For each star, the depth of the λ2200 feature is compared to EB-V and the equivalent width of the diffuse band λ4430.
A good correlation appears out to EB-V = 1.13. The various mechanisms for producing the diffuse and λ2200 features are discussed, and a discriminatory test is put forward based on observations of the Magellanic Clouds.
