Abstract

We observed in the Large Magellanic Cloud the associations LH 101 and LH 104, containing six Wolf-Rayet stars: one WN and five WCE subtypes. These regions are located south of the 30 Dor nebula. The new observations include UBV photometry for a thousand stars and spectroscopy in the range from 3600 to 5300 Å for about 90 stars. In LH 101 an O6.5f, an O6.5 + WN8 and a hydrogen emission star are identified. Cluster HR diagrams of these OB associations reveal their age structure.
