A list is presented of 189 faint emission line quasars with magnitude of between 19 and 22. The quasars are in 20 fields spread around the sky, observed with the Canada-Frence-Hawaii Telescope. Limits to the number as a function of magnitude for redshifts of no less than 2.0, but less than 2.5 are determined using objects with redshifts from two lines, and single-line objects in which the line could be Lyman-alpha. The results show that quasar numbers in this redshift interval increase more slowly with magnitude after 20 mag than they do for quasars brighter than 20 mag. A list is given of the close quasar-galaxies and quasar-quasar pairs.
