【 摘 要 】

Traditional HI surveys of optically selected elliptical galaxies are time-consuming, and have a low detection rate. The forthcoming Parkes HI multibeam survey offers the exciting possibility of surveying more than 10,000 nearby elliptical galaxies for HI. I argue that this is likely to result in the detection of a large population of small, HI-rich elliptical galaxies which have not previously been studied in any systematic way.
