Two regions in the Large Magellanic Cloud (centered atα = 5h 11m, δ= -66° 08’ (34B), α = 5h 27m, δ= -72° 15’ (47B) have been searched for OB and supergiant stars. A catalogue of 312 stars is presented in which objective prism spectral types, positions (1975), approximate B magnitues and cross identifications are given. About half the stars catalogued in each area are OB stars, the remainder are supergiants. The region at δ=-72° has two to three times as many F and G-type supergiants as the region at δ= -66°.
