A. ; McGuire, T. E. Abstract Observations are presented of the wavelength dependence of photospheric solar faculae obtained during August 1975. Systematic observations with an extreme limb photometer were carried out in five different bands. Plots of the limb brightness of a facular region for each of the five colors are presented in a graph. Another graph shows the wavelength dependence of the facular excess brightness, normalized to unity for the green filter used. The wavelength variation to be expected from the facular contribution to oblateness measurements is listed in a table.
