Excited levels of {sup 141}Xe, populated in spontaneous fission of {sup 248}Cm, were studied by means of prompt {gamma}-ray spectroscopy, using the EUROGAMM2 array. Level scheme of {sup 141}Xe obtained in this work shows patterns characteristic of simplex symmetry with s = +i and s = -i bands present but low value of D{sub 0} moment indicates that octupole correlations in Xe isotopes are systematically lower than in Ba nuclei.
