Fission fragment mass distributions have been measured for relatively neutron-deficient compound nuclei, ^{188}\mathrm{Pt}and ^{190}\mathrm{Pt} formed in the fusion reactions, ^{28}\mathrm{Si}+^{160}\mathrm{Gd}and ^{12}\mathrm{C}+^{178}\mathrm{Hf} respectively. The data were obtained for a similar initial excitation energy range of 49--68 MeV for both the systems. The fragment mass distributions for both the Pt isotopes were found to...
