Abstract: Let the image in ${H_{4k}}({\operatorname {QP} ^\infty }:Z) = Z$ of stable homotopy under the Hurewicz homomorphism be $h(k) \cdot Z$. Using the Adams spectral sequence for the $2$-primary stable homotopy of quaternionic and complex projective spaces it is shown that $h(k)$ is $(2k)!$ if $k$ is even and is $(2k)!/2$ if $k$ is odd.
