Abstract
We report velocity measurements of galaxies in this, the densest mass concentration within z = 0.1, obtained with the multifiber spectrograp h MEFOS at ESO, La Silla. We derive redshifts of a number of Abell clu sters and draw implications for the supercluster structure. The cluste rs A3554, A3566, A3577 and AS718 are confirmed as members, while the c lusters A3524, A3531, A3542, A3545 and A3549 are shown to be backgroun d systems and A3581 a foreground one.
