Abstract: The atlas of the spectrum of the B[e] star CI Cam obtained with the 6-m BTA telescope of the SAO RAS applying the NES spectrograph in the wavelength range of 395–780 nm with a resolution of is presented. The atlas identifies about 400 spectral features and illustrates the diversity of spectral features of the unique star, forming in a complex circumstellar environment. The spectrum is dominated by forceful single-peaked H I, He I emissions and numerous double-peaked permitted and forbidden emission lines of ions of chemical elements starting from the CNO triad up to metals (Mg, Al, Ti, V, Cr, Fe) with ‘‘rectangular’’ profiles. The Fe II and [Fe II] emissions predominate in the spectrum. However, several double-peaked forbidden ion emissions were also detected: [V II], [Cr II], [Ni II]. The atlas is presented graphically, with a separate figure corresponding to each échelle order. A list of identified lines, including a number of known interstellar features is presented in table form. The supergiant status of CI Cam is confirmed by the richness of its spectrum with different features of nitrogen.
