A detailed analysis of the galaxy distribution in the Southern Sky Red
shift Survey (SSRS) by means of the multifractal or scaling formalism
is presented. It is shown that galaxies duster in different ways accor
ding to their morphological type as well as their size. Elliptical gal
axies are more clustered than spirals, even at scales up to 15 h(-1) M
pc, whereas no clear segregation between early and late spirals is fou
nd. It is also shown that smaller galaxies distribute more homogeneous
ly than larger galaxies.
