A low-dispersion objective-prism survey for low-redshift emission-line galaxies (ELGs) is being carried out by the Universidad Complutense de Madrid with the Schmidt telescope at the German-Spanish Observatory of Calar Alto (Almeria, Spain). A 4° full-aperture prism, which provides a dispersion of 1950 Å mm^-1, and IIIa-F emulsion combination has been used to search for ELGs selected by the presence of H_α emission in their spectra. A compilation of descriptions and positions, along with finding charts, is presented for 103 emission-line objects. This is the second list, which contains objects located ina region of the sky covering 201.4 deg^2 in seven fields near α = 15^h and δ = 25°
