Pismis 2

Data from Di Fabrizio L., et al. 2001, Mon. Not. R. Astron. Soc. 328, 795

Collinder 228

Data from Carraro G., Patat F. 2001, Astron. Astrophys. 379, 136 Note :2000 has been added to Carraro's numbers, except for the 5 stars in common with the adopted numbering system.

2001 November 28

Coordinates J2000 communicated by Brian Skiff added for Pismis 13.

Note : Pismis 13 has been identified with NGC 2866 by several persons. Therefore all data previously recorded for Pismis 13 have been transferred to NGC 2866.

Coordinates J2000 communicated by Brian Skiff added for Pismis 5, Collinder 197, NGC 2645, Pismis 8 NGC 2669.

Note : Pismis 6 (= Waterloo 4, = van den bergh - Hagen 50) has been identified with NGC 2645 independently by van den Bergh (1975) and Brian Skiff (1995). Therefore all data previously recorded for Pismis 6 have been transferred to NGC 2645.

2001 November 23

NGC 6631

Data from Sagar R., et al. 2001, Bull. Astr. Soc. India (in press) Note : This is a new cluster in the database. I am grateful to Dr Ram Sagar for sending me a copy of his data prior to publication.
