We have detected 8,968 ultraviolet-excess galaxies in a sky area of some 5,100 square degrees by means of the UGR three-image photographs with the 105 cm Kiso Schmidt, giving a number density of 1.8 per square degree. A net count of the objects is 8,162, deleting those which appear repeatedly in the neighbouring survey area. For each of these galaxies which we call KUGs, data including morphological type and UV-excess degree are listed in a catalogue series of 18 volumes. Some statistics of these KUGs are also given in the last volume.
