Abstract
This is the second paper in a series aimed to investigate the spectral properties and to determine the nature of a sample of 165 pressumably obscured IRAS post-AGB star and PN candidates. In Ramos-Larios et al. (2009), 2MASS, MSX and Spitzer GLIMPSE archival data were used to search for near-IR counterparts in the 2MASS PSC, but the limited sensitivity of 2MASS observations did not allow the identification of ~80 sources in the sample.
