This resulted in the detection of 21 counterparts, of which 19 are new discoveries. Using colour-magnitude and colour-colour diagrams, we identify 13 Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars with thick circumstellar dust envelopes, 7 possible early post-AGB stars or stars recovering from a thermal pulse, and 1 red supergiant or foreground star. For 10 of the IRAS targets we do not succeed in detecting and/or identifying a near-infrared counterpart.
