Abstract
We consider complex rational vector fields that admit a first integral whose logarithmic derivative lies in a finite extension of the rational function field . In view of the Prelle-Singer theorem, these are the rational vector fields that admit an elementary first integral. Elementary integrable vector fields which are not Darboux integrable -- thus the extension field is necessarily a proper extension of -- may be called exceptional by an observation in an earlier paper by Christopher et al. For dimension two we characterize all possible algebraic extension fields underlying the exceptional cases, provide a construction of all exceptional vector fields, and obtain some criteria that restrict the degree of .
