Abstract

Using the Southern Halpha Survey (SHS), we have visually inspected every catalogued WR star in the Milky Way and the Magellanic Clouds for the presence of nebulosity suggesting an origin as stellar ejecta with the Southern Halpha Survey (SHS). Our survey revealed one new nebula around the star HD 62910 (WR 8) along with some correlations regarding binarity and WR nebulae progenitors.
