Optical properties of new semimagnetic semiconductors of Hg_{1-x-y}Mg_{x}Mn_{y}Te (x < 0.10, y < 0.10) in the fundamental absorption region at T = 290 K and 80 K were investigated. A shift of absorption band edge was revealed when composition and temperature changed. The energy gap and its temperature coefficient were evaluated as well as analytical expressions which describe E_{g}(x,y,T) for quaternary solid solutions were analysed.
