He states that "Abell 3627 ... officially resides in the southern constellation of Triangulum Australe (Southern Triangle), although it is sometimes referred to as the "Norma Cluster" ". Still doesn't say why?

Has some interesting observations of ESO 137-006, ESO 137-010, ESO 137-008. He uses an 18 inch scope though.

Hi Rob see my report above?
As mentioned in my report it was because of the Challenge from Steve that I did my observations.
I was just thinking maybe when the constellations where given their present boundries in I think about 1930's that it might have been moved wholey into Triangulum
Just a thought
Cheers
