Abstract: For square-free positive integers $n$, we study the action of the modular group $mboxPSL(2,mathbbZ)$ on the subsets $,fraca+sqrt-ncinmathbbQ(sqrt-n),|,a,b=frac{a}^2+nc,cinmathbbZ,$ of the imaginary quadratic number fields $mathbbQ(sqrt-n)$. In particular, we compute the number of orbits under this action for all such $n$ as provide an interesting congruence property of this number. An illustrative example and a C${}^{++}$ code to calculate such a number for all $1leqnleq100$ are also given.
