IT is often assumed that quasars are partaking in the general expansion of the substratum of an isotropic universe. This hypothesis requires that those quasars possessing any particular observational property should be randomly distributed over the sky. In this communication we present evidence which suggests that for at least one such property, the red-shift, quasars may be ordered in sets of decreasing isotropy. If further observations should continue to support this result, the simple cosmological explanation of quasar red-shifts may have to be abandoned in favour of (a) an anisotropic universe or (b) a more local and possibly galactic origin for quasars.
