We present a photometric and spectroscopic study of the galaxies originally considered as members of HCG 44, based on Gemini- GMOS images and Sloan Digital Sky Survey and NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database archival spectra. We analyze the globular cluster systems, show the colour maps of the galaxies, and present results obtained from the stellar population synthesis code STARLIGHT.
