Levels of ${}_{}{}^{16}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{F}$ have been investigated by means of the ${}_{}{}^{19}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{F}$(${}_{}{}^3{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{He}$, ${}_{}{}^6{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{He}$) reaction at 70 MeV bombarding energy and the ${}_{}{}^{16}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{O}({}_{}{}^3{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{He},t)$ reaction at 35 MeV. Three new states at 4.71, 6.05, and 6.93 MeV have been found.
