Abstract: Tu{a}rnu{a}uceanu described the finite groups $G$ having exactly $|G|-1$ cyclic subgroups. In "Finite Groups with a Prescribed Number of Cyclic Subgroups,", we used elementary methods to completely characterize those finite groups $G$ having exactly $|G|-Delta$ cyclic subgroups for $Delta=2,3,4$ and $5$. In this paper, we prove that for any $Delta>0$ if $G$ has exactly $|G|-Delta$ cyclic subgroups, then $|G|le8Delta$ and therefore the number of such $G$ is finite. We then use the computer program GAP to find all $G$ with exactly $|G|-Delta$ cyclic subgroups for $Delta=1,ldots,32$.
