Abstract
We have recently extracted a catalog of compact groups of galaxies (CGs) fr om the Las Campanas Redshift Survey. This catalog of Las Campanas Compact G roups (LCCGs) contains 76 CGs with a median redshift of z(med) approximate to 0.08. The physical properties of these CGs are similar to those from the Hickson (1982) and the Barton et al. (1996) catalogs. Here, we present an atlas of our catalog and briefly describe its general properties.
