ABSTRACT

Eighty-two UV-bright stars have been found on 17 two-color 484nch Schmidt plates centered on the galactic plane, and on one high-latitude plate. The sources are divided into three categories according to their apparent (U- B) values: (a) sources bluer than (U- B) -0.8, (b) sources bluer than (U- B) -0.5 but redder than (U- B) -0.8, and (c) marginal sources bluer than (U- B) -0.3 but redder than (U- B) -0.5. Some of the most prominent sources are discussed, and finding charts are included for all sources listed. Key words: UV stars
