 N:  532
Object:G  (SIMBAD class: Galaxy)
  Note:G in 6 fields in the north and south galactic polar caps:    NP5, NP7 and NP8 (North Pole) and SP4 to SP6 (South Pole).    field NP5: N=108.    field NP7: N=56.    field NP8: N=85.    field SP4: N=104.    field SP5: N=104.    field SP6: N=75.    In 1983AJ.....88.1285K, the authors don't numbered the galaxies,    so we use a format 'HHMMSS.s+DDMMSS'.    Galaxies have been numbered later from 1 to NNN in each field    (as ordered in 1983AJ.....88.1285K),    in 1988AJ.....95.1629M, the authors used the second format 'FFN NNN'.    See also KOS and [KOS87]
