Spectroscopic and photometric data for 23 faint-compact UV-excess galaxy candidates, found by Haro's three-color technique (1956), are presented. Eighteen were found to be emission-line galaxies (magnitudes between 14.4 and 17.9) with redshifts in the range of 1670 to 39,450 km/s; the remaining five appear to be stars. The apparent compactness of the galaxy images is a result of the finite resolution of the Survey plates. Faint Haro galaxies are not distinguishable from the original Haro galaxies in surface brightness or in their range of color and absolute magnitude. The Haro galaxies correspond to roughly two-thirds of Huchra's non-Seyfert Markarian galaxies (1977 a) which have the most negative (U-B) index; the new Haro galaxies have the same V magnitude growth with aperture, the same (B-V) aperture relation, and the same mean surface brightness as the Markarian galaxies.
