Abstract: Let $Xsubsetmathbb{P}^n$ be an unramified real curve with $X(mathbbR)eqemptyset$. If $ngeq3$ is odd, Huisman conjectures that $X$ is an $M$-curve and that every branch of $X(mathbbR)$ is a pseudo-line. If $ngeq4$ is even, he conjectures that $X$ is a rational normal curve or a twisted form of a such. We disprove the first conjecture by giving a family of counterexamples. We remark that the second conjecture follows for generic curves of odd degree from the formula enumerating the number of complex inflection points.
