   The catalogue lists coordinates, magnitudes, orbital parameters,            
   stellar parameters of the components and other characteristic               
   properties of  168 cataclysmic binaries,  36 low-mass X-ray                 
   binaries and  28 related objects with known or suspected orbital            
   periods together with a comprehensive selection of the relevant             
   literature that appeared after 1986.  In addition the catalogue             
   contains a list of references to published finding charts for 222           
   of the 232 objects. A cross-reference list of object designations           
   concludes the catalogue.
