We study the Hilbert scheme of smooth, irreducible, non-degenerate and linearly normal curves of degree d and genus g in ℙr (r≥ 3) whose complete and very ample hyperplane linear series D have relatively small index of speciality i(D)=g-d+r. In particular we determine the existence as well as the non-existence of Hilbert schemes of linearly normal curves HLd,g,r for every possible triples (d,g,r) with i(D)=5 and r≥ 3. We also determine the irreducibility of the Hilbert scheme HLg+r-5,g,r when the genus g is near to the minimal possible value with respect to the dimension of the projective space ℙr for which HLg+r-5,g,r≠∅, say r+9≤ g≤ r+11. In the course of proofs of key results, we show the existence of linearly normal curves of degree d≥ g+1 with arbitrarily given index of speciality with some mild restriction on the genus g.
