Photoelectric observations in BVRI colors have been obtained for about 200 stars suspected of being members of the Hyades cluster, mostly on the basis of their proper motions. More than half of this total have been observed photometrically for the first time; the rest are mostly stars covered in the early papers of this series for which the V - R colors had not been determined and for which the accuracy of the photometry could be improved by reobservation. Based on the photometry, about half of these stars appear to be probable cluster members. Most of the stars included here are faint and have appeared in proper-motion lists for which identification charts have not been available. Their identifications were confirmed from their motions measured on plates taken in the course of the Lick Proper Motion Survey. This list raises to about 810 the total number of stars in the Hyades region with broadband photometry. Of these, 365 appear to be probable or possible members of the cluster.
