We give several new lattice identities valid in nonmodular lattices such that a uniquely complemented lattice satisfying any of these identities is necessarily Boolean. Since some of these identities are consequences of modularity as well, these results generalize the classical result of Birkhoff and von Neumann that every uniquely complemented modular lattice is Boolean. In particular, every uniquely complemented lattice in M?V(N5), the least nonmodular variety, is Boolean.
