  Abbreviated: As part of our efforts to unveil extragalactic large-scale
structures behind the southern Milky Way, we here present redshifts for 764
galaxies in the Hydra/Antlia, Crux and Great Attractor region (266deg < l <
338deg, |b| < 10deg), obtained with the Meudon-ESO Fibre Object Spectrograph
(MEFOS) at the 3.6-m telescope of ESO. The observations are part of a redshift
survey of partially obscured galaxies recorded in the course of a deep optical
galaxy search behind the southern Milky Way. A total of 947 galaxies have been
observed, a small percentage of the spectra (N=109, 11.5%) were contaminated by
foreground stars, and 74 galaxies (7.8%) were too faint to allow a reliable
redshift determination. With MEFOS we obtained spectra down to the faintest
galaxies of our optical galaxy survey, and hence probe large-scale structures
out to larger distances (v <~ 30000 km/s) than our other redshift follow-ups.
The most distinct large-scale structures revealed in the southern Zone of
Avoidance are discussed in context to known structures adjacent to the Milky
Way.
