This is a report on the detection of HI emission from three ‘new’ dwarf galaxies Perseus A, Perseus B, and Camelopardalis D in the IC342/Maffei group of galaxies and of Draco A. The actual number of (probable) member galaxies of this group increases to 19 galaxies. Its velocity dispersion is 86 kms−1. With a distance of 2.2±0.5 Mpc this group is the nearest to the Local Group and might have considerable dynamical influence on the Local Group.
