HI observations of dwarf galaxies out to a distance of 50 MpcHere we report our preliminary findings from an HI search for dwarf galaxies in three environmentally distinct regions of the sky: a galactic void, a galactic cluster, and an interaction field. This study is sensitive at the 5(sigma) level to hydrogen masses as low as 5 x 10(exp 5) solar mass. We have made three possible detections of previously uncatalogued objects: one in the void field, and two in the cluster field. Reduction of the interaction field is in progress.
