Abstract: This paper studied the dynamical behavior of a 4-dimensional reversible system near a heteroclinic loop connecting a saddle-focus equilibrium and a saddle one. An existence theorem concerning denumerable 1-homoclinic orbits and countable families of 1-periodic orbits was given under a generic condition; and an intuitionistic description about those orbits was also given.

Key words: homoclinic orbits, heteroclinic orbits, reversibility, saddle-focus
