Thirteen candidate members of the Hyades moving group have been identified by a statistical kinematic criterion from among 927 A-type field stars whose space velocities are known. Several arguments support a genetic relationship between these objects and the Hyades 'supercluster') their kinematic parameters are close to those of the supercluster; and (2) the members have similar or equal ages whose mean value, (6.3 + or - 0.6) x 10 to the 8th yr, is consistent with the age of the Hyades open cluster and the kinematic-age estimate for the Hyades moving group.
