Although CGCG and UGC equate N1036 = I1828 = I1829, the third galaxy was reduced incorrectly by Javelle and is not equivalent (I1829 = Z439-026). See WSQJ #84, 4/91, for article on identifications.

Stephan's position (XI) matches M-01-07-033 = UGCA 40. Incorrect orientation in the NGC (given as NW-SE instead of SW-NE) although Stephan has the correct orientation in his discovery list. According to Thomson, N1051 ­ IC 249 (see Catalogue Corrections) based on Javelle's comment. But Corwin concludes N1051 = IC 249 because Javelle probably confused the superimposed star on the NE end as Stephan's N1051 and thought he had discovered a nova.

If Javelle reversed the sign of his declination offset from his reference star, then J.945 = IC 1837 would be an exact match with N1072.

The NGC identification of this galaxy is very uncertain due to poor positions in the group by Marth and UGC, MCG and CGCG identify this galaxy as IC 1846.

Discovered by Marth in a group of galaxies with several problem identifications (bad positions or faint stars?). RNGC and RC3 identify N1109 as U02293 = M+02-08-011. This galaxy was later correctly placed by Javelle as IC 1852 and CGCG, UGC and MCG use the IC designation. Marth's position for N1109 is 39 tsec E and 2' N of U02293.

Corwin suggests that N1109 may instead refer to IC 1846 = U02265 = M+02-08-006 = CGCG 440-008 (also from Javelle), which is located 2.0 tmin W of Marth's position but an exact match in RA. Due to the large difference in RA this identification is not certain. See N1111, 1112, 1113, and 1117.

17.5" (1/9/99): extremely faint, very small, elongated 3:1 SSW- NNE, ~25"x9". Originally this object appeared virtually stellar as I probably just detected the core but after viewing for awhile the thin extensions were noticed. Located 5.6' NW of IC 1852. The NGC identification from Marth of this galaxy is very uncertain, although it was correctly placed by Javelle (IC 1850). The galaxy chosen by the RNGC is probably incorrect.

Discovered by Marth in a group of galaxies which have several identification problems including N1109, N1112, N1113 and N1117. Corwin suggests that N1111 = IC 1850 (correct position from Javelle), located at 02 48 39.1 +13 15 34 (not in GSC). If this uncertain ID is correct, then Marth's RA is 1.0 tmin off (too far E), although the galaxy is a fairly good match in dec. The galaxy identified as N1111 in RNGC is located 7' S and 9' E of U02293 = N1112 (identification suggested by Corwin). Neither NED nor PGC has a listing for IC 1850.

Discovered by Marth in a group including N1109, N1111, N1113, N1115, N1116 and N1117 and N1127. Several of these galaxies are nonexistent or have poor positions including N1109, N1111, N1112, N1113 and N1117 and this number is listed as nonexistent in RNGC.

Marth placed N1117 at 02 50 43 +13 10 (2000). RNGC identifies N1117 as the double galaxy (U02337s = M+02-08-019/020 = Z440-022s). This galaxy is located at a mean GSC position of 02 51 13.0 +13 11 20 (2000) but is not identified as N1117 in CGCG or MCG. N1117 was discovered on the same night as N1109, N1111, N1112 and N1113 which all have very uncertain identifications (as well as N1115, N1116). In this case, the error would be 30s in RA.

17.5" (11/28/97): very faint, small, elongated 2:1 N-S, 40"x20", irregular surface brightness. On careful examination can resolve into a very close pair of extremely small galaxies oriented N-S with tangent halos [just 16" between centers!]. This double system is the brightest in Abell Galaxy Cluster 400 with CGCG 415-040 3.5' SW. The identification of this galaxy with N1128 is very uncertain as Swift's position is 5 tmin preceding.

Discovered by Swift (V). There is a mag 14.8 GSC star at 02 52 37.9 +06 02 24 (J2000), which is very close to Swift's position of 02 52 36 +06 02 41. His description mentions "2 pF st. close p" and there is a pair of mag 13.4/13.9 stars at 28" separation about 4.5' W. I had initially identified N1128 with this mag 14.8 star. Listed as nonexistent in RNGC.

Corwin gives a possible identification of N1128 = CGCG 415-041 = MCG +01-08-027 = III Zw 052, which is the brightest galaxy (double) in Abell 400. If this identification is correct, Swift made a 5 tmin error in RA. There are a couple of mag 12-13 stars close preceding this double system which might be Swift's "2 pf st. close p".

N1188 is the first of a group of five galaxies recorded by Leavenworth in list I including N1189, N1190, N1191 and N1192. Although Leavenworth only gave a single rough RA for these objects (corrected by 3 min of RA in a note in the second discovery list), Howe provided precise individual RA's which were listed in the notes and corrections section of the IC2.

Howe's position for N1188 is 03 01 23 -15 41 46 (1950) and very close to these coordinates is M-03-08-068 with a GSC position of 03 01 23.0 -15 40 46 (1950). It is interesting to note that this places N1188 just 8' N of N1199 which is the brightest member of the compact group Hickson 22 including Leavenworth's N1189-92.

The RNGC incorrectly lists N1188 as nonexistent and Sulentic identifies it as equivalent to N1199. M-03-08-067 is not identified as N1188 in the MCG and is not listed in DSFG. See RNGC Corrections #5.

17.5" (12/19/87): extremely faint, very small. An extremely faint mag 15.5 star is at the west edge. Located 3.7' NE of UGC 2626 = (R)N1259. First of three with N1260 and MCG +07-07-48 within Abell Galaxy Cluster 426. Incorrect identification in the RNGC.

Discovered by Bigourdan and placed 11s W and 1' S of his N1260. This corresponds to M+07-07-046 although N1260 is misidentified in MCG as N1259. The position of (R)N1259 corresponds to U02626 although it is possible the RNGC has made a positional error (as opposed to an identification error). The UGC notes to U02626 mention that N1259 is 3.6' NE. The PGC correction list agrees with my ID. DSFG uses the (R)NGC ID.

18" (7/8/02 - Magellan Observatory, Australia): bright, symmetric globular, ~5' diameter, with a large very bright condensed core (concentration class II). A mag 9 star lies 3.6' NE of the center, outside the halo. At 171x, the halo is just resolved into a large number of faint stars.

20" (7/8/02 - Magellan Observatory, Australia): at 212x, the resolution was a bit better in the halo than with the 18" NGT, but the blazing core was still unresolved.

17.5" (12/3/88): very faint, small, round, low surface brightness. An extremely faint companion is 1.5' SSW. Member of Abell Galaxy Cluster 426. Incorrect identification in the RNGC.

This member of the Abell 426 was placed by Bigourdan at 03 18 00 +41 31.6 (2000). The RNGC identifies N1264 as CGCG 540-085 at 03 17 51.1 +41 27 03 (2000). Bigourdan placed N1264 21.6' south of N1265 which he also discovered and precisely at this position is U02651 at 03 17 59.5 +41 31 14 (2000). This galaxy is correctly identified in UGC (U02643) and MCG (M+07-07-050). Listed in RNGC Corrections #3 and NGCBUGS.
