Abstract We present new Hα images of IC 1613, a small irregular galaxy in the Local Group. The images, obtained with a CCD on the 42 in. telescope at Lowell Observatory, have been calibrated and used to produce an Hα luminosity function and a size distribution for the H II regions in IC 1613. The results are compared to results for NGC 6822 and the Magellanic Clouds. The size distribution is found to be Poissonian over a limited range.
