Abstract
We analyse the stellar content of a large number of HII galaxies from the continua and absorption features of their spectra
using population synthesis methods, in order to gain information about the star formation histories of these objects.
Key words: catalogs -- stars: atmospheres -- HII regions -- galaxies: evolution -- galaxies: starburst -- galaxies: stellar content
