Supergauge transformations are defined in four space-time dimensions. Their commutators are shown to generate gamma /sub 5/ transformations and conformal transformations. Various kinds of multiplets are described and examples of their combinations to new representations are given. The relevance of supergauge transformations for Lagrangian field theory is explained. Finally, the abstract group theoretic structure is discussed. (auth)
