We have obtained two-dimensional spectroscopy of the central ∼10″ × 12″ of the Wolf-Rayet galaxy NGC 4861. We have carried out a preliminary analysis of the data, deriving continua at different wavelengths, and emission-line intensity maps (HeI λ4471, HeII λ4686, Hβ, [O III]λ4959, 5007) directly from the observed spectra.
