Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): blue spheroids within 87 Mpc

Abstract In this paper, we test if nearby blue spheroid (BSph) galaxies may become the progenitors of star-forming spiral galaxies or passively evolving elliptical galaxies. Our sample comprises 428 galaxies of various morphologies in the redshift range 0.002
