We present a spectrophotometric survey of 111 H ii galaxies. Observations were made at the ESO 1.52m telescope, with the b&c spectrograph. Our sample presents a great overlap with Terlevich et al. 1991. Additional targets come from the Calan-Tololo an Marseille catalogues. All objects have been observed and analysed homogeneously. We analyse their statistical properties and derive physical conditions (reddening, electron temperature, electron density), as well as chemical abundances.
