Abstract:
    A low dispersion objective-prism survey for low-redshift emission-line
    galaxies (ELGs) is being carried out by the University Complutense de
    Madrid with the Schmidt telescope at the German-Spanish Observatory of
    Calar Alto (Almeria, Spain). A 4{deg} full aperture prism, which
    provides a dispersion of 1950{AA}/mm, and IIIa-F emulsion combination has
    been used to search for ELGs selected by the presence of H{alpha}
    emission in their spectra. A compilation of descriptions and
    positions, along with finding charts, is presented for 103
    emission-line objects. This is the second list, which contains objects
    located in a region of the sky covering 201.4{deg}^2^ in seven fields
    near {alpha}=15h and {delta}=25{deg}.
