Table 7: Distribution of the star formation rate for the FSM and the IRAS sample (computed from the corrected H $\alpha$ emission flux and from the total IR luminosity; only objects classified as "HII region-like'' in Sect. 4.3 have been used). For comparison, the SFR inferred from the IR is also shown for the sub-samples with a measurable H $\alpha$ line.
