I/149) have been used in the reduction of local vertical monitoring and catalog observations at the Beijing Astronomical Observatory. The same data of 1987 FK4Sup stars, in which 980 stars denoted with "F" will be included in FK5, are also available recently from Heidelberg by courtesy of Prof Tong Fu, the Director of the Purple Mountain Observatory. The positions and proper motions of the other 1007 FK4Sup stars in FK5 system have been given by the Astronomisches Rechen-Institut in Heidelberg with comparatively low accuracy. However, the physical data, such as the visual magnitudes and the spectral types of these stars with rather larger uncertainties are originated from the Henry Draper Catalogue since the compilation of FK4 and FK4Sup (Cat. I/143). The more accurate visual magnitudes are available in the well-defined photoelectric system and the spectral types in MK-system that may be found, for example, in the Bright Star Catalogue (Cat. V/50) and a Supplement to this catalogue (Cat. V/36).
