Scientific paper

The results of approximately a 200 square degree relatively deep survey of high-latitude regions at balloon ultraviolet wavelengths are presented. Ultraviolet photometry is combined with ground-based spectrography to improve or extend knowledge on specific cases. The observed local space densities of hot stars are compared with those derived by other studies; the data suggest that the density of SdO's is not significantly higher than what can be expected from ground-based studies. In addition, three stars near F0 which show an ultraviolet excess are briefly discussed.
