   1- 10  A10    ---     KUG         Galaxy KUG number (in Kiso Catalog)
  13- 17  F5.2   ---     [OII]       log ([OII]/Hbeta)

  45- 49  F5.2   ---     [SII]       []? log ([SII]/Hbeta)
  54- 58  F5.2   ---     E(B-V)      E(B-V) from Balmer decrement
  64- 68  I5     K       Te          []? Electron temperature of the HII zone
  73- 76  F4.2   ---     12+log(O/H) []? 12 + log([O/H])  (oxygen abundance)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note:
      For two galaxies, there is no value of Te, nor of [O/H] : these two
      objects are Seyfert 2 nuclei and therefore the procedure of oxygen
      abundance determination is not applicable to them.
