    The author continues her study of the relationship between representations of finite groups and multiplicative eta products. (Cf. the preceding review Zbl 0923.11069). Theorem: For the dihedral groups \(D_n\) with \(3\leq n\leq 23\), \(n\notin\{13, 17, 19\}\) (and only for these \(n)\), there exists a faithful representation \(\Phi\) of \(D_n\) such that, for any \(g\in D_n\), the eta product \(\eta_g(z)\) corresponding to \(\Phi(g)\) is an eigenfunction of all Hecke operators. A complete list of the functions \(\eta_g(z)\) is given. It contains all the 28 multiplicative eta products with integral weight which are known to exist [\textit{D. Dummit}, \textit{H. Kisilevsky} and \textit{J. McKay}, Contemp. Math. 45, 89-98 (1985; Zbl 0578.10028)].
