The experimental reaction and decay studies producing nuclei in the A=230 mass chain have been reviewed. Data on elements from radon (Z=86) to americium (Z=95) are included, and level and decay schemes are presented for these nuclides. This work supersedes the previous evaluation for this mass chain (2012Br12).
