We present an Ultraviolet (UV) selected sample of 268 objects in the twofields of the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey (GOODS). We used theparallel observations taken with WFPC2 in the U--band (F300W) which covered 88%of the GOODS fields to identify sources and selected only objects withGOODS/ACS counterparts. Spectroscopic redshifts for 95 of these sources areavailable and we have used the multiwavelength GOODS data to estimatephotometric redshifts for the others. Most of the objects are between0.2
