Excited states in {sup 213}Po have been populated using the {sup 18}O+ {sup 208}Pb reaction at 85 MeV beam energy and studied with the Euroball IV {gamma} multidetector array. The level scheme has been built up to {approx}2.0 MeV excitation energy and spin I{approx}25/2({h_bar}/2{pi}) from the triple {gamma} coincidence data. Spin and parity values of several yrast states have been assigned from the {gamma} angular properties. The configurations of the yrast states are discussed using results of empirical shell-model calculations and by analogy with the neighboring nuclei. The spin and parity values of several low-spin states of {sup 213}Po previously identified from the {beta} decay of {sup 213}Bi are revised.
