Summarizing the results presented, the Maza J., Ruiz M.T., Gonz´alez L.E., Wischnjewsky M., Pen˜a M., 1991, A&AS89, 389 analysisofthecontentofvarioustypesofobjects,andthe Pesch P., Stephenson C.B., MacConnell D.J., 1995, ApJS 98, discussion above, we draw the following conclusions: 41 Popescu C.C., Hopp U., Els¨asser H., 1997, A&A328, 756 – The intended methods to detect ELG candidates on PopescuC.C.,HoppU.,HagenH.-J.,Els¨asserH.,1996,A&AS the plates of the Hamburg Quasar Survey give a rea- 116, 43 sonably high detection rate of emission-line objects Popescu C.C., HoppU.,HagenH.J.,Els¨asser H.,1998, A&AS (∼ 75 %) (85 objects of 113 observed in this third 133, 13 part). Pustilnik S.A., Engels D., Ugryumov A.V., Lipovetsky V.A., – Besides ELGs, we found also 4 new quasars, all with Hagen H.-J., Kniazev A.Y., Izotov Y.I., Richter G., 1999, Lyα in the wavelengthregion4950−5100 ˚A (i.e with A&AS135, 299 (Paper II) PustilnikS.A.,UgryumovA.V.,LipovetskyV.A.,ThuanT.X., 3.07 < z < 3.2) near the red boundary of the IIIa-J GusevaN.G., 1995, ApJ 443, 499 photoplates.
