Abstract: A set of relations between the modulus and phase is derived for amplitudes of the form $melshatu(x)$ where $hatU(x)inSU(n)$ in the fundamental representation and $x$ denotes the coordinates on the group manifold. An illustration is given for the case $n=2$ as well as a brief discussion of phase singularities and superoscillatory phase behavior for such amplitudes. The present results complement results obtained previously cite{PMrel1} for amplitudes valued on the ray space $calR=mathbbC{P}^n$. The connection between the two is discussed.
