Ultraviolet interstellar extinction excesses are presented for 1415 stars with spectral types B7 and earlier. The excesses with respect to V are derived from Astronomical Netherlands Satellite (ANS) 5 channel UV photometry at central wavelengths of approximately 1550, 1800, 2200, 2500, and 3300 Å. A measure of the excess extinction in the 2200 Å extinction bump is also given. Stars exhibiting peculiar UV extinction are identified. The data are valuable for investigating the systematics of peculiar interstellar extinction and for studying the character of UV interstellar extinction in the general direction of stars for which the extinction-curve shape is unknown.
