A spectrum-photometric classification based on 167 spectrograms, from the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory, for 28 Mira variables and with corresponding UBVRI photometry was discussed. Spectrographic profiles were presented for the M0 to M8 classification. A spectrum color index scale was achieved after determining the following double spectral classification for V-R and R-I color indices: V-R = 0.0076 S cu + 1.2; R-I = 0.16 S + 0.82 if S is less than M3; and R-I = 0.36 S + 0.28 if S is greater than or equal to M3. In the spectra M7-M8, TiO bands absorption almost eliminated radiant energy in the visual region. In the context of the scale of spectral classification, spectrophotometric characteristics of the singular R Aqr Mira were analyzed, and the classification of 40 Mira stars was provided based on near-infrared photometry.
