The spectroscopic analysis of emission line galaxies identified from an objective prism survey
Spectroscopic observations are described of 42 galaxies that weresuspected to be active galactic nuclei (AGN) on the basis of theirdetection by the objective prism survey of Wamsteker et al. (1985). Thepresence of emission lines was confirmed in nearly all objects, and linefluxes and other spectral properties have been measured. Six new Seyfertgalaxies were discovered, while most of the other objects were found tobe starburst galaxies, some with very strong emission lines. At leastfour of the Seyferts have a broad-line component. The most interestingof these is object 7, for two reasons: (1) the broad lines are verystrong compared with the narrow lines, something that is normally onlyobserved in much more luminous Seyfert nuclei; and (2) the galaxy inwhich this nucleus is embedded seems to be remarkably faint.

| Faint southern galaxies with H-alpha emission
A catalog of 113 emission line galaxies, selected by the presence ofH-alpha + N II forbidden line emission, is presented. The objects wereselected from an objective prism survey made with the ESO Schmidttelescope, using the (IIIaF + RG630) plate-filter combination.
