Description:
We made a search for IRAS galaxies behind the Northern Milky Way by
infrared selection using IRAS Point Source Catalog and visual
inspection on POSS (Palomar Observatory Sky Survey) paper prints, and
carried out a redshift survey of the identified objects. This paper
presents a catalog of 649 IRAS galaxies with f60≥0.6Jy between
l=150deg and 240deg at |b|≤15deg, which contains 254 newly identified
galaxies and 188 newly measured radial velocities. Due to galactic
extinction, our sample is a lower limit sample of the flux limited
sample of IRAS galaxies, but it can give some information on the
distribution of galaxies in the region perpendicular to the
Supergalactic Plane. We confirm two regions with enhanced density at
l∼160deg, cz∼5000km/s and l∼190deg, cz∼5000km/s and at least two
possible voids.

Note (1): the symbols are:
G = galaxy
G? = possible galaxy
? = extended image but unlike normal spiral galaxy
Note (2): the symbols are:
S = spiral
E = elliptical galaxy
E/S = not classified alternatively
? = irregular appearance
Note (3): Diameters measured on POSS E (red) prints or UK Schmidt Atlas (I
or J) film copies. (1 mm corresponds to 67 arcsec in angular size)
Note (4): I and J indicate the UK Schmidt I and J film copies,
respectively, and blank means POSS I and E paper prints.
Note (5):
* For multiplicity:
pair = two galaxies are located within a separation as wide as
the galaxy sizes
tri = triplet
quar = quartet
int = two galaxies appear to be interacting
* For image appearance:
PN? = possible planetary nebula
star? = possible star
LSB = Low Surface Brightness
HSB = High Surface Brightness
ND = Nuclear Dominated
pec = peculiar
neb? = possible reflection nebula
cD = cD galaxy

If the redshift has been known before our measurement, the
heliocentric radial velocity and the reference are denoted in
parenthesis. When the galaxy has two or more catalog names, only
the first one is written in full name. The catalogs are:

Blanks means newly identified object in the present search on POSS and
Yamada et al.'s Southern Milky Way search. The total number of blank
