A morphological box for the space distribution of galaxies and dark matter as the consequence of various types of cosmogonical hypotheses is presented. A short review of concepts of clustering of galaxies is given. One has to distinguish between the phenomena of “clusters of galaxies” and of “clustering of galaxies”. The second notion is more general. The investigations of K IANG , F LIN , and P EEBLES speak in favour of general clustering rather than overal existence of individual clusters. Individuals such as our Supergalaxy, Coma cluster etc. seem rather to be exceptional features.
