A catalogue of velocities in the cluster of galaxies Abell 85

We present a catalogue of velocities for 551 galaxies (and give the coordinates of 39 stars misclassified as galaxies in our photometric plate catalogue) in a region covering about 100(') x 100(') (0.94x0.94 Mpc for an average redshift of 0.0555, assuming H_0=50 km s(-1) Mpc(-1) ) in the direction of the rich cluster ABCG 85. This catalogue includes previously published redshifts by \cite[Beers et al. (1991)]{bee91} and \cite[Malumuth et al. (1992)]{mal92}, together with our 367 new measurements. A total of 305 galaxies have velocities in the interval 13350-20000 km s(-1) , and will be considered as members of the cluster. ABCG 85 therefore becomes one of the clusters with the highest number of measured redshifts; its optical properties are being investigated in a companion paper.
