Morphological and luminosity segregation of dwarf and normal galaxies in the Virgo Supercluster and its environs are compared using correlation functions, void probability functions and cluster analysis. Results show that dwarf galaxies follow morphological segregation similar to that for normal galaxies: dwarf early-type galaxies are concentrated in clusters with sizes about 1-2 Mpc. Morphological segregation is weak outside of clusters. Voids, determined by spiral and irregular galaxies of various luminosities, have similar sizes.
