Scientific paper

Imaging and the spectroscopy are presented for two nebulae at low galactic latitude, Anon 1132-58 and Anon 1244-53, obtained in the course of a long term program of observations of candidate PN, that turned out to be galaxies. Both galaxies are rich in H II regions, especially in their most external parts, and have been classified Sm and SBm, respectively. The spectra of both galaxies are characterized by narrow emission lines, typical of the H II region-like galaxies. The heliocentric recession velocities of 1400 and 1820 km/s were measured, but in the hypothesis that the local velocity field is perturbed by the flow toward the Great Attractor, they result considerably closer to the Galaxy. Discordant estimates of the extinction toward the two galaxies are discussed.
