Discovery of two isolated lethargic dwarf galaxies in the Local Group
neighborhood
We determined the distances for two dwarf galaxies, KK258
(MB=-10.3) and KKs3
(MB=-10.8), as 2.23 and 2.12Mpc, respectively, with an accuracy
better than 4%. As a result of an analysis of Hubble Space Telescope
observations, we refined their morphological classification and
reconstructed their star formation history. The gas-poor galaxy KK258 is
a typical transition-type galaxy with a very low rate of current
star formation. It is located 0.8 Mpc away from its nearest neighbor.
The dwarf spheroidal galaxy KKs3 is separated by more than 1Mpc from any
known galaxy. Presently, only two dwarf spheroidal galaxies are known
to be as isolated.

Catalogue of extragalactic distances
We have compiled a catalogue of estimates of extragalactic distances to
galaxies, obtained independently of the redshift. Currently, the catalogue
contains 6640 measurements for 2335 galaxies, collected from 430 publications.
We correlated the different methods of distance estimation, which allowed
us to reduce all measurements to a common distance scale. The catalogue
is fully integrated into the HyperLEDA extragalactic data base.
