Remarks:
Three new pulsating variable stars were found in MACHO data. The fundamental mode RR Lyrae is not included in the large lists of MACHO fundamental mode RR Lyrae variables (e.g. Kunder et al. 2008).
Data is sourced from the online public domain archives of the MACHO Project (Allsman and Axelrod 2001). The coordinates are from the 2MASS Point Source Catalog.
