Scientific paper

Candidates for exciting stars have been examined in 49 southern H II regions by means of photoelectric UBV and H-beta photometry. The photometric distances of the related stars are compared with the kinematic distances of the corresponding H II regions as given by Georgelin et al. (1973). In the range l 250 deg through 360 deg to 30 deg there are no systematic differences. Only a region in Puppis at l about 230 deg yields photometric distances which systematically exceed the kinematic ones. It is shown that an abnormal R-value cannot account for the observed discrepancy in this region.
