ABSTRACT
This is an all-sky catalog of 4073 rich clusters of galaxies, each having
at least 30 members within the magnitude range m_3_ to m_3_ + 2 (m_3_ is
the magnitude of the third brightest cluster member) and each with a
nominal redshift less than 0.2. The southern data have been collected from
a survey of UK 1.2 m Schmidt telescope IIIa-J plates and films and have
been reduced to the systems defined by the northern data previously
published by G. O. Abell. A revised northern catalog, including
Bautz-Morgan types and redshifts where known, is also included.
Subject headings: galaxies: clustering - galaxies: redshifts - galaxies:
structure
