The wavelength-resolved fluorescence excitation technique has been used to record the (0,0) bands of the $e3\Pi 1-a3\Delta 1$ and $e3\Pi 2-a3\Delta 2$ electronic transition of ZrO at a resolution of $0.03cm-1$. Those data were combined with previous high resolution $analyses1.2$ to obtain an accurate term energies for the triplet state manifold of $\mathrm{<mrow\; data-mjx-texclass="ORD">90</mrow>}Zr16O$. The principal constants (in $cm-1$) obtained from recent and previous analyses are: $\backslash begin\{figure\}\backslash end\{figure\}$ Work supported by AFOSR under grants F19628-90-C-025 and F49620-92-J-0215.
