Abstract

We present homogeneous and standardized UBV(RI)C JHK photometry for over 100 M stars selected from an earlier paper on the basis of apparent photometric constancy. L photometry has been obtained for stars brighter than about L = 6. Most of the stars have a substantial number of UBV(RI)C observations and, it is hoped, will prove useful as red supplementary standards. Additionally,we list JHK photometry for nearly 300 Hipparcos red stars not selected as standards, as well as L photometry for the brightest stars.
