OBSERVATIONS

We have obtained new spectra for 11 FBS objects. The observations were carried out on November 25, 1998 and January 14-15, 1999 at the Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory (BAO) and at the Observatoire de Haute-Provence (OHP), respectively. The journal of observations is given in Table 1, together with relevant data.

Seven of the newly observed objects are stars, including FBS2308+425 (at b = -16.3$^\circ$) which is associated with a ROSAT RASS (Voges et al. 1999) X-ray source (Table 2, Paper I).

FBS0950+664 (RXS J09540+6608) has been identified on an objective prism plate as an AGN (Bade et al. 1998); our spectrum shows it to be a Seyfert 1 at z = 0.172. Our new spectra of FBS1235+699 and FBS1324+448 confirm their redshift (z = 0.521 and 0.331 respectively). FBS1715+406 is Zw225.094 or MCG07.35.061, a 15.4 mag galaxy at z = 0.030 (Marzke et al. 1996); according to Abramian & Mickaelian (1994), it is an emission line galaxy; our spectrum shows that it is an absorption line galaxy, with a weak [Nii]$\lambda$6583 line in emission at z = 0.029.

The spectra of the four extragalactic objects are displayed in Fig. [*].
