WereportthediscoveryofseveralnewOB/X-rayac- creting binary candidates. These massive systems were found by cross-correlating in position SIMBAD OB star catalogues withthepartoftheROSATall-skysurveylocatedatlowgalactic latitudes(jb j20)andselectingtheearlytypestarswhichap- parentlydisplayedthemostsignicantexcessofX-rayemission over the 'normal' stellar level. The present search is restricted to stars earlier than B6 and X-ray luminosities 10 31 ergs 1 . Follow-up optical and X-ray observations allowed to remove misidentied OB stars and spurious matches with interloper X-ray emitters (mostly active coronae) leaving ve very likely new massive X-ray binaries: the O7 star LS 5039 and the Be stars BSD 24- 491, LS 992, LS 1698 and LS I +61 235. This lattersourcewasalreadymentionedinanearlierpaper.LS 1698 is the probable optical counterpart of the hard X-ray transient 4U 1036-56.
