Table 6: Summary of the properties of the massive YSOs. Columns 2-4: spectral lines (-: not present, +: present, n: not observed); Col. 5: is the source the counterpart of a radio UCHII?; Col. 6: spectral evidence for a circumstellar disk. (+: evidence for a disk); Col. 7: spectral type estimated based on the position in the CMD (Fig. 1); Col. 8: spectral type based on the IRAS luminosity of the IRAS source. This is an upper limit on the spectral type of the massive YSO, as usually more stars contribute to the IRAS flux. Column 9: spectral type estimate based on other methods. Column 10: properties of the surrounding cluster, taken from Kaper et al. (2006). The OB star spectra are discussed in Bik et al. (2005). References: K94: Kurtz et al.
