## Abstract Recent models of the formation of ultra‐luminous X‐ray sources (ULXs) predict that they preferentially form in low‐metallicity environments. We look at the metallicity of the nebula surrounding NGC 1313 X‐2, one of the best‐studied ULXs. Simple estimates, based on the extrapolation of t
