Abstract

We are reporting some recent results from our long-term program aimed at better understanding of the hidden present-day star cluster population in the Galaxy. So far, most clusters from our studies have typical ages of 3-10 Myr, and typical masses of order of a few thousand solar masses. Only two of them -[DBSB2003] 179 and RCW 87- are moderately massive (at or approaching 10^4 solar masses).
