1. The data. We study detailed star formation histories (SFH) of 14 dwarf galaxies in the central parts (≤ 300 Kpc) of the two nearby galaxy groups: M 81 (D=3.6 Mpc) and Cen A (D = 3.8 Mpc). The images of 7 galaxies were selected from the sample of about 50 nearby dwarf galaxies observed with the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) at the Hubble Space Telescope within our prog. 9771 & 10235, (PI I.Karachentsev). The rest of the images (ACS and WFPC2) were taken from the Hubble Archive (prog. 9884, 5898 and 6964).
