A catalog of 57 Herbig Ae/Be stars and Herbig Ae/Be star candidates is presented. Fifty percent of the stars have double-peak H-alpha profiles separated by a nearly unshifted absorption component, while 25 percent have single-peak H-alpha profiles and 20 percent have P Cygni profiles. Qualitative wind properties are derived for stars with P Cygni line profiles in H-alpha and Na D. The photometric variation properties of early and late type Herbig Ae/Be stars are found to be quite different. The IR excesses of Herbig Ae/Be stars are much stronger than those of ordinary Be stars, and the two stellar groups are shown to be well separated in the H-K, K-L two-color diagram. Stars later than B6 are generally located above the main sequence in the HR diagram, which confirms that most of these stars are still in the premain-sequence stage of evolution.
