This Technical Note represents an extension of .work published earlier [l]. The amount of light coming from stars of each magnitude from m = 6 to 18 is presented for every 10° in galactic longitude and galactic latitudes 0°, -2°, ±5%. ±10°, ±15% ±20°, ±30°,±40°/ ±60%, ±70° and ±80°. In addition the total integrated starlight at each of these points is given, using an extrapolation technique to estimate the contribution from stars of magnitude greater than 13. Attention is called to systematic differences between the total integrated starlight based on star counts and recently measured values by ELsasser and Haug. A table converting from galatic to ecliptic and equatorial coordinates is given for convenience.
