1 Introduction

For performing uniform statistical analysis of properties of galaxy clusters a large sample of these objects was needed (Flin et al. 1988). This is the fourth, and the last one, of a series of papers (Trèvese et al. 1992; Flin et al. 1995; Trèvese et al. 1997) giving the positions, magnitudes ellipticities and orientations of cluster galaxies with magnitudes between m3 and m3+3, where m3 is the magnitude of the third brightest galaxy within one Abell radius from the cluster centre. Because the details of the observations and data reduction were given in the previous papers, here in Sect. 2 we present their brief summary. The description of the catalogues is given in Sect. 3. We present also the surface density maps for each cluster with individual objects superimposed on the map. For identification some galaxies are labelled with corresponding numbers from the catalogue.
