Scientific paper

We found a new, very compact group of galaxies characterized by a median
projected separation between galaxies of 5.2/h kpc and a very low velocity
dispersion. All the observed member galaxies show emission line spectra and a
disturbed morphology. From these properties it emerges that this compact group
is in an extremely advanced stage of evolution.
