By using a narrowband 5000{AA} filter and complementary broadband photometry from the MUSYC survey, we identify a statistically complete sample of 162 galaxies with monochromatic fluxes brighter than 1.5x10^-17^ergs/cm^2^/s and observer's frame equivalent widths greater than 80{AA} Description: Narrowband observations of the ECDF-S were performed with the MOSAIC II CCD camera on the CTIO Blanco 4m telescope. These data consisted of a series of 111 exposures taken over 16 nights (between 2002 Oct 06 and 2004 Feb 20) through a 50{AA} wide full width at half-maximum (FWHM) {lambda}5000 filter.
