The first catalog of LV galaxies was presented by Kraan- Korteweg & Tammann (1979) and contained 179 galaxies −1 2 THE LVHIS GALAXY SAMPLE with Local Group velocities, vLG, less than 500 km s .

(2004) included 451 galaxies with vLG < 550 km s or terferometric H spectral line and 20-cm radio continuum independent distance D < 10 Mpc.

Following Karachentsev et al. −1 the most recent nearby galaxy catalog (K13; available at (2004), we selected galaxies with vLG < 550 km s or, when www.sao.ru/lv/lvgdb) which contains 869 galaxies. Of these, available, independently determined distances of D < 10 only 261 galaxies (30%) lie in the southern sky. Fig. 1 shows Mpc. To enable high-resolution H i studies of LV galax- the locations of the LVHIS galaxies in the southern sky. ies with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA), we also require the selected galaxies to have declinations < ◦ i The H i sizes of known LV galaxies cover more than two δ ∼ − 30 and be detected in the H Parkes All Sky Survey orders of magnitude, ranging from low-mass dwarf galax- (HIPASS). This ensures that our target galaxies are bright ies with diameters of less than 500 pc (e.g., Leo T, Ryan- enough for a detailed study of their H i gas distribution and Weber et al. 2008) to grand-design spirals with H i diameters dynamics with a reasonably symmetric synthesized beam. of nearly 100 kpc, e.g., Circinus (For et al. 2012) and M 83 Applying these criteria leads to an ATCA sample of 82 LV (Koribalski 2015, 2017). Consequently, their H i masses span galaxies.
