Results are reported from an effort to extend in depth the recently completed Southern Sky Redshift Survey. Redshifts for a complete sample of galaxies with morphological types earlier than Sbc have been measured in a declination strip of about 135 x 10 deg, down to a magnitude limit of m(B0) = about 15.1. The general pattern seen in the north is confirmed: galaxies are distributed on relatively thin wall-like structures that surround vast voids, some as large as 60/h Mpc (H0 = 100h km/s Mpc). The presence of two large voids immediately adjacent to each other in this slice supports earlier suggestions that such large voids may be a common feature of the nearby universe.
