The galaxy catalogues are presented, a brief description of the galaxy search given, as well as a discussion on the distribution and characteristics of the uncovered galaxies. A total of 8183 galaxies with major diameters D>~0.2 arcmin were identified in this ~850 square degree area: 3759 galaxies in the Crux region and 4423 galaxies in the Great Attractor region. Of the 8183 galaxies, 229 (2.8%) were catalogued before in the optical (3 in radio) and 251 galaxies have a reliable (159), or likely (92) cross-identification in the IRAS Point Source Catalogue (3.1%). A number of prominent overdensities and filaments of galaxies are identified. They are not correlated with the Galactic foreground extinction and hence indicative of extragalactic large-scale structures. Redshifts obtained at the South African Astronomical Observatory (SAAO) for 518 of the newly catalogued galaxies in the Crux and Great Attractor regions (Fairall et al., 1998, Cat. <J/A+AS/127/463>; Woudt et al., 1999, Cat. <J/A+A/352/39>) confirm distinct voids and clusters in the area here surveyed. With this optical galaxy search, we have reduced the width of the optical `Zone of Avoidance' for galaxies with extinction-corrected diameters larger than 1.3' from extinction levels A_B>~1.0mag to A_B>~3.0mag: the remaining optical Zone of Avoidance is now limited by |b|<~3{deg} (see Fig. 16).2001A&A...380..441Whttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/A+A/380/441CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toVII/209 : Galaxies Behind the Milky Way (Saito+ 1990-91; Roman+ 1996-98)J/A+AS/141/123 : Galaxies behind Southern Milky Way (Kraan-Korteweg 2000)J/A+A/352/39 : Great Attractor region redshifts (Woudt+, 1999)J/A+AS/127/463 : Crux region redshifts (Fairall+ 1998)J/ApJS/89/57 : IRAS galaxies behind southern Milky Way (Yamada+, 1993)II/125 : IRAS catalogue of Point Sources, Version 2.0 (IPAC 1986)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/380/441https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/380/441http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/380/441https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/380/441https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/380/441http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/380/441GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/A+A/380/441/table1 (Galaxies behind the southern Milky Way)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/380/441/table1?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/380/441/table1?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/380/441/table1?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true152.330417-68.0213890.005555555555555556Cone search capability for table J/A+A/380/441/table3 (IRAS galaxies behind the southern Milky Way)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/380/441/table3?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/380/441/table3?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/380/441/table3?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true163.072407-69.3750050.0055555555555555564/2589-2590 2595-2596 2600 2618 2632 2693-2694 2697-2698 5/9287 9293 9295-9298 9536 10299 10301-10303 10343 10345-10350 10354-10355 10364-10366 10375 10377 10379 10388-10390 10392-10393 10396 10404 10427 10429 10431-10432 10459 10463 10469-10471 10476-10478 10480 10482-10486 10488-10489 10510-10511 10522-10524 10532-10533 10535-10536 10544 10633-10634 10763 10765-10767 10769-10771 10780 10785-10787 10796 10816-10817 10880 6/37141 37143 37169 37171 37177-37179 37196-37198 37200-37202 37204-37205 37216-37218 37264-37266 37953 37955-37957 37959 37968-37969 37971-37973 37975 41194-41195 41202-41203 41343 41358-41359 41369-41371 41377-41379 41404-41405 41407 41410-41411 41413-41415 41468-41470 41487 41493-41495 41497-41499 41507 41513-41515 41564-41565 41567 41576-41577 41579 41588 41620-41621 41624-41625 41628 41632-41634 41636 41638 41640 41666 41686 41695 41713 41715 41721-41723 41732-41733 41736-41738 41741 41745 41747-41750 41753 41756 41760-41761 41791-41792 41794 41827 41833-41835 41840 41843-41844 41846-41849 41851 41864 41867 41869-41871 41873-41875 41916-41918 41925-41927 41948 41960-41961 41968 42026-42027 42029-42031 42039 42082-42083 42085-42087 42104 42136-42138 42148-42149 42154 42158 42160-42162 42180 42507 42511 42513 42528 42530-42531 42540 43008 43037-43039 43043-43044 43046-43047 43049 43051 43056 43058-43059 43073-43075 43124 43128 43136-43137 43139 43188 43192 43200-43202 43204 43208 43272-43274 43280-43281https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/A+A/380/441?format=asciiOpticalInfrareddefaultJ/A+A/380/441/table1Galaxies behind the southern Milky WayrecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
