NGC 6118. - No velocity was known for this
galaxy, but the HII regions
appear on the 6607
photographs and to a lesser extent on the
6563
thus indicating a velocity of about +1800 km s-1. The surface
brightness of this galaxy is low and the dust difficult to detect. If
the velocity is approximately correct, this galaxy has a diameter
about 24 kpc (with H = 75 km s-1 Mpc-1).
