The Melotte catalogue is a catalogue of 245 star clusters compiled by British astronomer Philibert Jacques Melotte. It was published in 1915 as A Catalogue of Star Clusters shown on Franklin-Adams Chart Plates.[1] Catalogue objects are denoted by Melotte, e.g. "Melotte 20". Dated prefixes include as Mel + catalogue number, e.g. "Mel 20".[2]

The catalogue contains 161 open clusters, 81 globular clusters, two asterisms, and one galaxy.

## Errors

[edit]

There are some errors in Melotte's list:

* Mel 28 and 29 are asterisms.
* The elliptical or lenticular galaxy Mel 57 was mistaken for a globular cluster.
