The method of ''sosie'' galaxies is applied to a large sample of galaxies extracted from the BGP catalog of H I line data and the Second Reference Catalogue of Bright Galaxies. The ''sosies'' of 14 calibrating galaxies (primary calibrators and galaxies in the nearest groups) are defined as those having the same parameters, either (1) morphological type T, axis ratio R, and maximum rotation velocity V/sub M/ or (2) T, R, and luminosity index ..lambda../sub c/.
