To improve the census of the Local Volume galaxies, we carried out a
systematic search for nearby dwarf galaxies in a declination range of
based on the ESO/SERC film copies. As a result, we present
a list of 81 nearby dwarf galaxy candidates of low surface brightness
which have angular diameters 
.
Half of the objects have been
found for the first time. This sample may be considered as supplementary to
our list of 95 southern nearby dwarf galaxy candidates (A&AS, 1998, 127,
409) which have been detected in the same declination range around the
known Local Volume galaxies.
