We made a search for IRAS galaxies behind the Northern Milky Way by infrared selection using IRAS Point Source Catalog and visual inspection on POSS (Palomar Observatory Sky Survey) paper prints, and carried out a redshift survey of the identified objects. This paper presents a catalog of 649 IRAS galaxies with f_60_>=0.6 Jy between l=150deg and 240deg at |b|<=15deg , which contains 254 newly identified galaxies and 188 newly measured radial velocities. Due to galactic extinction, our sample is a lower limit sample of the flux limited sample of IRAS galaxies, but it can give some information on the distribution of galaxies in the region perpendicular to the Supergalactic Plane. We confirm two regions with enhanced density at l=~160deg , cz=~5000 km/s and l=~190deg , cz=~5000 km/s and at least two possible voids.
