In recent years, especially following the work of Binggeli et al. (1985) on the Virgo Cluster, there has been a great surge of interest in low surface brightness galaxies (LSBGs). One of the most important questions, of course, is — how many LSBGs are there? Here we present some results from recent surveys which have been carried out in Cardiff in an effort to shed light on this problem.
