%X We present analysis of a new flux limited sample of 72 X-ray selected BL Lacertae objects with known redshifts for 59 of them. We find the more X-ray dominated BL Lac having negative evolution with redshift, while intermediate objects show no evolution at all. X-ray dominated objects show higher X-ray luminosities and flatter X-ray spectra than the intermediate ones. We were also able to determine the redshift of 1517+656, which is part of our sample and is the optically most luminous X-ray selected BL Lac known so far.
