Prominent molecular absorption bands in the spectra of carbon stars make their detection possible, even in relatively distant external galaxies. Although extensive surveys for carbon stars have been carried out mainly in the Magellanic Clouds and the dwarf spheroidals in the Galactic halo, more distant galaxies in the Local Group and beyond have been successfully searched for this kind of object.
