A region containing the SGP, centered at α 00h 53m (1950) δ −28°03', is becoming a selected region for QSO research. Three lists of QSO candidates have been published for this field. One consists of candidates discovered visually on an objective prism plate, selected in a 25-deg2 area and with B(lim) ⋍ 20 mag (Clowes and Savage, 1983; the CS sample). The other list came from visual inspection of U and B plates (UVX stars), covering a region of 44-deg2 and with approximately the same limiting magnitude of the CS sample (Campusano and Torres, 1983; the CT sample). The third survey of QSO-candidates involved a machine selection of UVX stars (Shanks et al., 1983), whose published components correspond to two small areas of 1.6 and 8.2 deg2 with B(lim) = 19 mag (Boyle et al., 1985).
