 N:  221+230
Object:HII  (SIMBAD class: HIIReg = HII Region)
  Stat:is completely incorporated in Simbad
  Note:LHA 120-N:    identified with acronym 'e' on Hodge & Wright V charts    (ref. 1967SAOP.4699....1H) while N means NGC.    A few nebulae are very large: No. 56. Nos 10 and 135 which    are rather 'constellations'.    See the comment of ref. 1956ApJS....2..315H in the table    of references.    Identif. charts.    Some components with a format 'LHA 120-N NNA' have been added    later in the literature.
