Shell galaxies are widely considered the debris of recent accretion/merging
episodes. Their high frequency in low density environment suggests that such
episodes could be among the driver of the early-type galaxy secular evolution.
We present far and near UV (FUV and NUV respectively hereafter) GALEX
photometric properties of a sample of shell galaxies.
