Detailed compiled and evaluated spectroscopic information is presented for each reaction and decay dataset, and recommended values are provided for level properties, <em>α</em>, <em>β</em> and <em>γ</em> radiations, and other spectroscopic parameters, based on an evaluation of all the available experimental data for A=149 isobaric nuclides. Although large amounts of nuclear spectroscopic data are available for nuclides of A=149, yet large gaps in knowledge exist, as described below. For the lowest atomic number nuclide <sup>149</sup>Xe, only the isotopic identification has been made, with no data for its ground-state half-life.

For <sup>149</sup>Ba, <sup>149</sup>La and <sup>149</sup>Er, limited data exist for excited states. Many of the decay schemes of radioactive nuclei of A=149 are considered as incomplete, either due to large energy differences between the highest observed excited states in daughter nuclides and the respective Q-values, or due to the lack of confirmed <em>γ</em>-ray data, as listed below: <sup>149</sup>Cs → <sup>149</sup>Ba, <sup>149</sup>Ba → <sup>149</sup>La, <sup>149</sup>La → <sup>149</sup>Ce, <sup>149</sup>Ce → <sup>149</sup>Pr, <sup>149</sup>Pr → <sup>149</sup>Nd, <sup>149</sup>Tb(4.17 min) → <sup>149</sup>Gd, <sup>149</sup>Ho(21.0 s and 56 s) → <sup>149</sup>Dy, <sup>149</sup>Er(4 s and 9.6 s) → <sup>149</sup>Ho, and <sup>149</sup>Tm → <sup>149</sup>Er.
