We investigate high-order above-threshold ionization of diatomic molecules and their companion atoms by linearly polarized strong laser field using improved molecular (atomic) strong-field approximation. The most noticeable feature of the molecular spectra is the existence of minima that are absent in atomic case. We have derived an analytical formula for their position which is independent of the molecular symmetry.
