Narrow-band imaging and others

Drissen et al. (1993) have conducted a search for HeII $\lambda$4686 emission via narrow-band imagery in four low mass galaxies (GR8, NGC 2366, IC 2574, NGC 1569). Two of them are now confirmed WR galaxies (see above), IC 2574 remains to be studied spectroscopically, and GR8 yielded negative results (no HeII).

Schmidt-Kaler & Feitzinger (1984) initiated a search for 30 Dor and NGC 604 like objects based on POSS, ESO-Blue, and SRC film. To the best of our knowledge results from this survey have not been published.
