Note (4):
LRS spectral class, from the IRAS-LRS atlas (1986) when available;
otherwise, from the IRAS-LRS database, without determination of the
subclass n (Appendix). Most sources classified 5n would have appeared
as 50 or 05 in the LRS atlas. Spectra quoted as 4no are 4n spectra
with 18 micrometer silicate emission (Fig.2, rows II and III).
"kvh" indicates the presence of the 21 micrometer emission
(Kwok et al., 1989) (Fig.5, row II).
"int" denotes intermediate spectra with a maximum in the middle of the
LRS range (Fig.5, row I), probably characteristics of the very early
stages of the detachment of PPN envelopes (Loup, 1991).

V = General Catalogue of Variables Stars (Kholopov 1985, 1987)
DO = Deaborn catalogue, cat. <II/68>

(iii) zeta44 autoclass from the auto-classification of LRS spectra
by Cheeseman et al. (1989) for objects of autoclass zeta44
