    The author gives presentations of those 38 space groups G which have a semidirect decomposition \(G=G_ 1\circ C_ 2\), where \(C_ 2\) is an invariant Coxeter subgroup generated by plane reflections and \(G_ 1\) is a so-called rod group leaving the fundamental domain of \(C_ 2\) and a straight line invariant. The main part of this paper consists of a table of diagrams containing the information on the presentations.
