This sample has been selected from the 239 sources with the brightest X-ray flux (>4X10^-13 erg s^-1 cm^-2) and relatively bright optical counterpart (B<20.5) among the ~1600 objects included in the REX survey. The uniform distribution of the Ve/Va values found in the sample suggests that BL Lac objects are not affected by a strong cosmological evolution in contrast with the behavior observed in the emission line AGNs.
