V = 13.5; Size 1.7x0.7; SB = 13.4; PA = 78d
17.5": fairly faint, fairly small, very elongated 3:1 ~E-W, 0.5'x0.15'.
Contains a small bright core which occasionally appears stellar. A mag 13.5
star lies 1.6' NE. Situated nearly at the midpoint of N4927 3.7' WNW and
N4934 3.4' E within Abell 1656.
Discovered by d'Arrest. His position matches U08154 = M+05-31-114 =
Z160-118. The RA is incorrect in the RNGC and the galaxy is misplotted on
the U2000.
