Reflection sieve obstructions in finite groups of type dn

In [4] we constructed certain homology representations of a finite group G of type A_n, B_n or C_n, and showed that these representations can be used to sift out the reflection compound characters of G. In the present note, we show that for a group G of type D_n, each reflection compound character π^(k), 2 k n − 2, determines a unique “obstruction” character θ^(k), which occurs with positive multiplicity in every homology representation containing π^(k).
