We confirm and extend our previous detection of a population of intergalactic
globular clusters in Abell 1185, and report the first discovery of an
intergalactic globular cluster in the nearby Virgo cluster of galaxies. The
numbers, colors and luminosities of these objects can place constraints on
their origin, which in turn may yield new insights to the evolution of galaxies
in dense environments.Comment: 2 pages, no figures. Talk presented at JD6, IAU General Assembly XXV,
Sydney, Australia, July 2003, to appear in Highlights of Astronomy, Vol. 1
