Results of a new search for formaldehyde absorption are also listed. Source selection was based on the 5GHz continuum southern galactic plane survey of Haynes et al. (1978, 1979). Data is given for most H II regions in the galactic longitude range 210 to 360 degrees that show 5GHz continuum brightness temperature exceeding 1K (as observed with the 4 arcminute beam of the Parkes 64-m telescope), together with a selection of sources that are weaker or outside of this longitude range. Tabulated data include source coordinates, peak brightness, flux density, and angular size from the 5GHz continuum survey; radial velocities of detected formaldehyde absorption lines; recombination line peak brightness, radial velocity, and line width; derived electron temperature assuming LTE; derived kinematic distance from the Sun and galactocentric radius; and presence or absence of a visible optical counterpart. In cases where kinematic distance is ambiguous, both near and far distances are tabulated; a flag is given if there is a strong preference for near or far distance based on information such as H I or H2CO absorption measurements or visibility of an optical counterpart. Many of these radio HII regions lie beyond the range of optical detection, at distances exceeding several kpc; they thus provide a comprehensive coverage of the southern HII regions in the Galaxy over the longitude range 210 to 360 degrees and constitute a vital data base for the study of galactic structure.</description><source format="bibcode">1987A&amp;A...171..261C</source><referenceURL>https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/A+A/171/261</referenceURL><type>Catalog</type><contentLevel>Research</contentLevel><relationship><relationshipType>IsServedBy</relationshipType><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/TAP">TAP VizieR generic service</relatedResource></relationship><relationship><relationshipType>IsServedBy</relationshipType><relatedResource>Conesearch service</relatedResource></relationship></content><rights>https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.html</rights><capability><interface xsi:type="vr:WebBrowser"><accessURL use="full">https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/171/261</accessURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at IUCAA: Pune, India">https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/171/261</mirrorURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at SAAO: SAAO, South Africa">http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/171/261</mirrorURL></interface></capability><capability><interface xsi:type="vs:ParamHTTP"><accessURL use="base">https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/171/261</accessURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at IUCAA: Pune, India">https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/171/261</mirrorURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at SAAO: SAAO, South Africa">http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/171/261</mirrorURL><queryType>GET</queryType><resultType>text/xml+votable</resultType></interface></capability><capability standardID="ivo://ivoa.net/std/TAP#aux"><interface xsi:type="vs:ParamHTTP" role="std"><accessURL use="base">https://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tap</accessURL></interface></capability><capability xsi:type="cs:ConeSearch" standardID="ivo://ivoa.net/std/ConeSearch"><description>Cone search capability for table J/A+A/171/261/table1 (Hydrogen recombination line data (1))</description><interface xsi:type="vs:ParamHTTP" role="std"><accessURL use="base">https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/171/261/table1?</accessURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at IUCAA: Pune, India">https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/171/261/table1?</mirrorURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at SAAO: SAAO, South Africa">http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/171/261/table1?</mirrorURL><queryType>GET</queryType><resultType>text/xml+votable</resultType></interface><maxSR>180.0</maxSR><maxRecords>50000</maxRecords><verbosity>true</verbosity><testQuery><ra>112.523991</ra><dec>-18.540957</dec><sr>0.005555555555555556</sr></testQuery></capability><coverage><spatial>5/10453 10556 6/21504 28808-28809 28812 28814 28818 28824 28827 28831 28875 28898 28900-28901 28915 29094 29113 37334-37335 37343 37363-37366 37369 37371-37372 37752 37837 37839 37846 37850 37872 37884 37886 37893-37895 37897 37899 37906 37921 37923-37924 37926 37928-37929 37931 38016-38018 38024 38026 39250 39384 39386 39804 41598 41655 41657-41659 41671 41673 41675-41678 41681-41683 41685 41689 41696 41706 41758-41759 41763 41765-41767 41769-41770 41772-41773 41777-41778 41780-41782 41798-41799 41803 41805 41811 41817 41820 41824 42158-42159 42163 42169-42174 42207 42210-42212 42214-42216 42218 42228-42230 42376 42379 42381-42382 42387 42390-42393 42395-42398 42435-42436 42438-42441 42444-42445 42447 42449-42451 42455-42457 42460-42462 42496-42498 42500 42512 42516 43015 43017-43021 43024 43026-43027 43040</spatial><spectral>3.313034785154005e-24 3.313034785154005e-24</spectral><footprint ivo-id="ivo://ivoa.net/std/moc">https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/A+A/171/261?format=ascii</footprint><waveband>Optical</waveband><waveband>Radio</waveband></coverage><tableset><schema><name>default</name><table><name>J/A+A/171/261/table1</name><description>Hydrogen recombination line data (1)</description><column><name>u_Tc</name><description>[ :] Uncertainty flag on Tc</description><ucd>meta.code.error</ucd><dataType xsi:type="vs:VOTableType" arraysize="1*">char</dataType></column><column><name>recno</name><description>Record number assigned by the VizieR team.
