Resumen
We present an analysis of the globular cluster system (GCS) of the galaxy NGC 3613, an intrinsically bright elliptical galaxy (MV = -21.5) in a low density environment (it is the central galaxy of a group of a dozen galaxies). Based on Gemini/GMOS photometry of NGC 3613 we obtained the following properties for this GCS. A `blue tilt´ is detected in the colour-magnitude diagram. The colour distribution is bimodal, presenting the two classical globular cluster (GC) sub-populations. The spatial and azimuthal projected distributions show that red sub-population correlates with the stellar component of the host galaxy.
