Abstract:
    The twelfth list of blue stellar objects in the second part of the
    First Byurakan Spectral Sky Survey (FBS) is presented. This list
    contains 143 objects in the region -3°<DE<+1° at high
    latitudes with an area of approximately 992 square degrees
    (62 fields). The objects have magnitudes V of 11.8-18.1 and B-V colors
    ranging from -0.82 to +0.81. Of the 143 objects, 51 have been
    discovered for the first time. Equatorial coordinates, V magnitudes,
    color indices, and preliminary classifications of the objects are
    given. DSS identification charts are given for the newly discovered
    objects.

Note (1): FBS classification is explained in Cat. I/223. It consists
  in 2 parameters:
  1. a letter B or N describes the very blue (B) or more neutral aspect
  2. a number related to ultraviolet intensity, from 1 (important UV)
     to 3 (less important UV)
  In addition, 'e' indicates emission, and 'a' absorption.
