      The authors present some important integer sequences (eigensequences) that are associated in a canonical way with sequence transformations, thus extending the work of \textit{R. Donaghey} [J. Comb. Theory, Ser. A 21, 155-163 (1976; Zbl 0345.05002)] and \textit{P. J. Cameron} [Discrete Math. 75, No. 1-3, 89-102 (1989; Zbl 0685.05001)]. The transformations considered are: BINOMIAL, STIRLING, CONV (with modifications), MÖBIUS, WEIGH, EULER, PARTITION, INVERT, and EXP. 52 examples of basic sequences with respect to these transformations are given; in part, they are new. Many of these sequences arise from the Stirling, Catalan, and Bell numbers, as well as from multiply transitive groups and enumeration of trees. They were not published in ``A handbook of integer sequences'' of the second author [Acad. Press, New York (1973; Zbl 0286.10001)] but will be included in the subsequent book [the second author and \textit{S. Plouffe}, The encyclopedia of integer sequences, Acad. Press, San Diego, 1995]. Unfortunately, two figures are missing in the print (on pp. 64 and 66).
