ResumoV photoelectric lightcurves of ten main belt asteroids (11 Partenope, 20 Massalia, 31 Euphrosyne, 41 Daphne, 55 Pandora, 71 Niobe, 79 Eurynome, 129 Antigone, 344 Desiderata, and 387 Aquitania), obtained during the 1981–1983 oppositions, are reported. The rotation period of 11 Partenope is P = 7.83 hr and that of 344 Desiderata P = 10.53 hr. The shape and the pole coordinates of 20 Massalia, 31 Euphrosyne, and 129 Antigone were also derived and those of 41 Daphne confirmed. The lightcurves of the remaining objects are presented: a preliminary discussion of their possible rotational properties and their morphological features is given.
