Description
Fifty-seven nearby low surface brightness dwarf galaxies (-10>~M_V_>~-16) were searched for globular cluster candidates (GCCs) using Hubble Space Telescope WFPC2 imaging in V and I. The sample consists of 18 dwarf spheroidal (dSph), 36 irregular (dIrr), and 3 "transition" type (dIrr/dSph) galaxies with angular sizes less than 3.7kpc situated at distances 2-6Mpc in the field and in the nearby groups: M 81, Centaurus A, Sculptor, Canes Venatici I cloud.
