Abstract

We present a catalogue of 6206 stars which have proper motions exceeding 0.18 arcsec/yr with an R-band faint magnitude limit of 19.5 mag. This catalogue has been produced using SuperCOSMOS digitized R-Band ESO and UK Schmidt Plates in 131 Schmidt fields covering more than 3,000 square degrees (> 7.5% of the whole sky) at the South Galactic Cap. The survey is > 90% complete within the nominal limits of the Luyten Two Tenths Catalogue of m_R < 18.5 mag and 0.2 < mu < 2.5arcsec/yr, and is > 80% complete for m_R < 19.5 mag and mu < 2.5arcsec/yr.
