We present an analysis of the carbon dwarf G77-61, a known binary, based on high resolution Keck spectra. G77-61 has a very-low metallicity, although not as extreme as what was previously conjectured. This star is very carbon-enhanced, the spectra showing very strong CH, CN, and C2 bands of both 13 C and 12 C isotopes. Atomic lines are sparse, and often blended, but we were able to derive abundances for Na, Mg, Ca, Cr, Mn, and Fe. Its [Fe/H] of -4.03±0.1 places it among the lowest metallicity stars known, and its very high [C/Fe]=+2.6 , and [N/Fe]=+2.6 among the most C and N-rich metal-poor stars. The carbon isotopic ratio is 12 C/13C=5±1. No overabundance of s- or r-process elements is detectable, but the upper limits that can be set on these overabundances are not very constraining. Key words. Stars: abundances ; Stars: carbon ; Stars: Population II ; Stars: individual: G77-61 1. Introduction The star G77-61 was first identified as a nearby carbon dwarf by Dahn et al. (1977). They re- analyzed its previous parallax determination by Routly (1972) to find MV = +9.6 ± 0.6 mag. Dearborn et al (1986) established that G77-61 is a binary with an unseen companion and with a period of ～245 days, suggesting a cool white dwarf of much higher mass than the visible object as the second star. The primary was later spectroscopically analysed by Gass et al. (1988), who Send offprint requests to: B. Plez ? based in part on observations obtained at the W.M. Keck Observ
