20 Noting that the solar spectrum was crossed by "innumerable" dark lines, Fraunhofer mapped their relative positions with precision.  He developed an alphabetic system for labeling selected reference lines, assigning A to a line near the red end of the spectrum, D to the pair of dark lines associated with the bright orange streak he had observed in flame spectra, H to a line near the end of the visible violet, and I to a line in the ultraviolet.  Fraunhofer's lines puzzled practitioners and theorists alike for over four decades after the publication of his spectral maps.
