  We present the statistical properties of large scale galaxy distribution in
the LEDA redshift database. This catalog contains more than 40,000 redshifts
over all the sky. We find that LEDA, although seriously affected by
incompleteness, shows quite stable statistical properties. In particular, we
have considered the behaviour of the two points correlation function and of the
power spectrum of the density fluctuations, and we have done several tests to
check whether the incompleteness of the catalog affect these statistical
quantities. Our conclusion is that galaxy distribution in this catalog has
fractal properties up to the distance 200 Mpc with D = 2.1 \pm 0.2, with no
sign towards homogeneity: this result is statistically stable. We analyze also
the properties of the angular distributions, finding a complete agreement with
the results obtained in redshift space. Finally, we compare these results with
those obtained in other redshift surveys, finding that this sample well
reproduces the properties of galaxy distribution found in the different
catalogs.
