Let R be a commutative noetherian ring and f1, ..., fr ∈ R. In this article we give (cf. the Theorem in \S2) a criterion for f1, ..., fr to be regular sequence for a finitely generated module over R which strengthens and generalises a result in \cite2. As an immediate consequence we deduce that if \rm V(g1, ..., gr) ⊆ \rm V (f1, >..., fr) in Spec R and if f1, ..., fr is a regular sequence in R, then g1, ..., gr is also a regular sequence in R.
