We present the Northern HIPASS Optical/Infrared Catalogue (NOIRCAT), an optical/near-infrared counterpart catalogue for the Northern HIPASS catalogue (NHICAT). Of the 1002 sources in NHICAT, 655 (66%) have optical counterparts with matching optical velocities. A further 87 sources have optical counterparts with matching velocities from previous radio emission line surveys. Assuming a dark galaxy to be an isolated HI source with no detectable stars, no candidate dark galaxies have been confirmed.
