Again in this Category, as in the preceding, one we have tried to
select non-multiple galaxies, or galaxies that have a reasonable
chance of being non-multiple. Some of the galaxies in this Category
can have filaments or extensions, but the most prominent aspect must
be a distorted or peculiar central body.
Elongated galaxies make up the first members of this Category, Page
16.1. Then the criterion shifts to that of ``clumpy irregulars'' (for a
complete discussion of this term see Casini and Heidmann (1976),
Heidmann (1979), and
Heidmann, Klein and
Wielebinski (1982)). The
final two pages in this Category show examples of
high-surface-brightness, irregularly shaped galaxies.
