Abstract:
    A list of 959 Seyfert galaxies whose data were obtained up
    to the beginning of 1987 is compiled. Coordinates, redshifts,
    UBVR-photoelectric magnitudes, absolute magnitudes, morphological
    types, fluxes in H and [OIII] 5007, JHKLN-fluxes, far-infrared
    (IRAS) fluxes, radio-fluxes at 6 and 11 centimeters, monochromatic
    X-ray fluxes in 0.3-3.5 and 2-10 keV and some other data are presented
    in six Tables. This Catalogue data may be used as basic ones for some
    statistical investigations. References contain 957 entries.
