Abstract
We present new counts of field galaxies from more than 20 arcmin(2) to a limiting magnitude of K = 20 and from 2 arcmin(2) to K = 21.5. At t he faintest magnitudes, the counts are slightly higher than those repo rted previously, though still consistent given the small numbers of ga laxies in the two samples.
