We have made a search for line-of-sight coincidences between WR stars and open clusters using the new catalogue of galactic WR stars (van der Hucht et al., 1981, called the HCLS catalogue) and the catalogue of open cluster data (Lyngå and Lundström, 1980). As a measure of the separation we used the angular distance between the WR star and the cluster centre expressed with the cluster angular radius, r', as unit.
