A close relationship was established between the number of perfect and nearperfect matchings on cylinders Cm×Pn. Generating functions are obtained for the number of near-perfect matchings in these graphs for fixed odd m ≤ 13. A conjecture is put forth on the properties of the denominators of generating functions for arbitrary odd m.
