Volume recombination of C$$^{4+}$$ and $$e^{-}$$ into C$$^{3+}$$ is observed for the first time in detached plasmas with MARFE. It is found that the recombination flux of C$$^{4+}$$ to C$$^{3+}$$ is comparable to the ionization flux of C$$^{3+}$$ to C$$^{4+}$$, and that the recombination zone is above an X-point and beneath the ionization zone. This result suggests that this volume recombination predominantly produces C$$^{3+}$$ ions, which contribute 60-80 % to the total radiation power in the divertor plasma.
