Abstract
We present new VLA observations of the H I medium of the Local Group dwarf galaxies Sag DIG, LGS 3, and Phoenix. Sag DIG is a gas-rich, blue dwarf irregular with some known recent star formation, whereas LGS 3 and Phoenix are gas-poor, red galaxies of intermediate irregular/spheroidal type with little recent star formation. These galaxies complete a small sample of Local Group and near-Local Group irregular and elliptical galaxies that have been mapped in H I and, where possible, in CO. We compare the properties and kinematics of the ISM in these different galaxy types in order to gain some insights into the relationship between galaxy properties, star formation, and the ISM.
