The WARPS (Wide-Angle ROSAT Pointed Survey) blazar survey is a deep X-ray search for BL Lac objects and flat-radio-spectrum quasars (FRSQs), drawn from a cross-correlation of serendipitous sources in the ROSAT PSPC database WGACAT (White et al. 1994) with the Green Bank 6 cm and 20 cm (Condon et al. 1989, Condon & Broderick 1985), the Parkes radio (Bolton et al. 1979), and the Parkes-MIT-NRAO (Griffith & Wright 1993, Wright et al. 1994, Griffith et al. 1994, 1995) catalogs. Our sample contains 165 new blazar candidates and 95 previously known blazars.
