Scientific paper

A sample of 92 galaxies with published surface photometric data in B band and inclined randomly to the line of sight is selected and used to compute the photometric parameter QN. The dependence of QN on the apparent flattening q is found and discussed for different morphological groups. QN is more sensitive to q in earlier-type galaxies.
