We present spectrophotometric observations of three southern dwarf novae – BV Cen, EX Hya and VW Hyi - in the wavelength range 1250 – 7500Å. Because of the rapid variability of these objects, spectra were obtained simultaneously using the IUE satellite and the Anglo-Australian Telescope. BV Cen and EX Hya were observed in quiescence and VW Hyi on the decline from outburst.
