Description:
    The Southern Sky Redshift Survey (SSRS) includes 13 groups of 5 or
    more members with velocities >=2000km/s. By measuring redshifts and
    accumulating data from the literature, we increase the total number of
    known group members from 89 to 218. We also measured new redshifts for
    59 foreground/background galaxies superimposed on the group
    neighborhoods. The velocity dispersions of the groups are remarkably
    stable.
