This confirms a conjecture made by Pleijel in 1956. The proof is a combination of Pleijel's original approach and an estimate due to Toth and Zelditch for the number of boundary zeros of Neumann eigenfunctions.4 pages; to appear in the Proceedings of the AMSSpectral TheoryAnalysis of PDEs35B05; 35P99Pleijel's nodal domain theorem for free membranestext
