Abstract
WE present twenty-four identifications of radio sources with neutral coloured objects of stellar appearance. We consider these objects to be of special interest because they do not fall into the two normally accepted categories for identification; that is, galaxies or blue stellar objects. Two of them have recently been found to have exceptionally high redshifts1,2, and it is hoped that further optical measurements on the others will produce equally interesting results.
