  We present the results of a study of a sample of 375 Extremely Red Galaxies
(ERGs) in the Phoenix Deep Survey, 273 of which constitute a subsample which is
80% complete to K_s = 18.5 over an area of 1160 arcmin^2. The angular
correlation function for ERGs is estimated, and the association of ERGs with
faint radio sources explored. We find tentative evidence that ERGs and faint
radio sources are associated at z > 0.5. A new overdensity-mapping algorithm
has been used to characterize the ERG distribution, and identify a number of
cluster candidates, including a likely cluster containing ERGs at 0.5 < z < 1.
Our algorithm is also used in an attempt to probe the environments in which
faint radio sources and ERGs are associated. We find limited evidence that the
I - K_s > 4 criterion is more efficient than R - K_s > 5 at selecting dusty
star-forming galaxies, rather than passively evolving ERGs.
