Scientific paper

Separations of H II regions in a sample of 44 late type galaxies are determined. The distribution function of the linear separations follows an exponential law. This distribution function may be used as secondary standard for distance determinations of galaxies. Typical values of the separations are of the order of 300 pc; they reflect an important scale length in the process of star formation.
