IC 2017 Galaxy *
RA: 03h 56m 39.6s Dec: -59° 23' 42"
Mag: 14.9 (P) S.B.: --- B-V: ---
Size: 1.2'x0.6' Class: SA0^: pec P.A.: 20
Inclination: --- R.V.: --- Source: RC3 *
This is another very tiny and faint eg whcih is to the S of an E facing "V" shaped asterism of mag 12.5 to 13.5 *s. Very very tiny, 20" x 10" in PA 90 can only just be held with A.V and grows weakly to the centre without nucleus.

IC 2024 Galaxy *
RA: 04h 00m 03.5s Dec: -53° 22' 27"
Mag: 15.5 (P) S.B.: --- B-V: ---
Size: 1.3'x0.3' Class: SB(s)cd? sp P.A.: 29
Inclination: --- R.V.: --- Source: RC3 *
Tis is an exceptionally faint eg that is only occasionally visible with A.V. Small and very elong, maybe 40" x 5" in PA 30 as a streak of tenuous gossamer with no central brightening. Very close to threshold.

IC 2025 Galaxy *
RA: 04h 00m 22.9s Dec: -53° 03' 56"
Mag: 16.2 (B) S.B.: --- B-V: +0.78
Size: 1.0'x0.1' Class: Sb: sp P.A.: 120
Inclination: --- R.V.: +12998 Source: RC3 *
Note the R.V!! This is an exceptionally faint eg that is only barely visible occasionaly at threshold as a tiny streak of gossamer 30" x 5" with no structure visible. It is found to the W of the last star in a string that goes single, double, single, single mags 10-12 from SE to NW.

NGC 1526 Galaxy *
RA: 04h 05m 12.1s Dec: -65° 50' 26"
Mag: 14.6 (P) S.B.: --- B-V: ---
Size: 0.8'x0.5' Class: Sbc P.A.: 36
Inclination: --- R.V.: --- Source: RC3 *
This eg is quite close to a small RA Tri of a 12 and a couple of mag 13 *s where the brightest star is at the RA. It is fairly small, round, pretty faint though it can be easily held with A.V 40" - odd with a slight broad concentration to centre.

RA: 04h 06m 37.0s Dec: -57° 57' 44"
Mag: 15.8 (P) S.B.: --- B-V: ---
Size: 1.2'x0.1' Class: Sc: sp P.A.: 122
Inclination: --- R.V.: --- Source: RC3 *
This is a barely visible object at threshold. Only occasionally visible as a tiny, tiny streak of gossamer may be 20" long in PA 100 with no structure visible. Only a couple of arc-minutes to the W of a mag 11 star.

These two galaxies are in adjacent fields -- theya re only 12' apart. -29 is foudn to the SW of a mag 9.5 * by about 12'. A very small reasonable SB lenticular sliver in PA 0 with no stars associated. Quite faint but not too bad. Seems to have a very small and faint substellar nucleus. Overall seems about 20" diameter and elong slightly in PA 0.
This eg forms a RA tri with the * and NGC 1527. Probably the brightest seen tonight in Reticulum. 50" dia and slightly elong in PA 90 with a vaguely brighter broad streak through it in PA 90 and there is a mag 13 * just on the S flank of the halo. Overall the eg is oval in shape with a broad streak running through it but no real core or nucleus.

This is a very faint and very elong eg in a pretty non-descript field. Appears in the centre of a very very long I tri -- just W of the Eastmost star at the apex. Very very faint and tiny streak of gossamer, 40" x 5" in PA 90 with a weak central brightening and no visible core.

Size: 1.0'x0.9' Class: SAB(s)d? P.A.: 3
Inclination: --- R.V.: +1086 Source: RC3 *
This is a very, very tiny eg in a non-descript field that is to the S of a small flat I tri of 2 mag 11 and 1 mag 12 * which is at the wide apex. A very very tiny and faint eg, only 20" diameter with a broad slight central brightening, no zones and no apparent nucleus.

RA: 04h 17m 53.2s Dec: -56° 36' 58"

Size: 1.0'x0.6' Class: S0-: pec P.A.: 157
Inclination: --- R.V.: +6686 Source: RC3*
This is another field that is pretty ordinary and a very faint eg. It is 5-6' away distinctive pair of pairs of mag 13 stars to the E. Very small and faint, Mod LSB round, 30-40" diameter appears to have a faint, weakly brighter spot in the centre but no real nucleus.
