Abstract
Limb darkening observations are important for the construction and ver ification of solar model atmospheres. We investigate the consistency o f solar limb darkening data, published for the UV wavelength region be tween 2000 and 3300 Angstrom, from the comparison of F/I-0 ratios base d either on direct limb darkening observations or on absolute irradian ce (F) and disk-center intensity (I-0) measurements. There exists a di screpancy between the limb darkening data of Moe & Milone and other, d irect or indirect, limb darkening observations.
