How to find out which colours are in a colour palette

I am using ggplot2 to plot a simple graph with scale_color_brewer(palette="Dark2"). I generally like the colour palette, but I would like to change one line of my plot. I think I need to use scale_color_manual. I can change the colours this way, but how to find out which colours are used in the "Dark2" theme? I would like to keep all but one.

You can use the RColorBrewer library

library(RColorBrewer)

# Put all the color values (in hex format) from Dark2 into a vector
myPal <- brewer.pal(8,"Dark2")

# Remove whichever color you don't want
myPal <- myPal[-7]
