LEDA 74886, also known by its 2MASX designation 2MASX J03404323-1838431, and sometimes known as the Emerald-cut Galaxy, is a dwarf galaxy with a rare rectangular shape. It is located at a distance of about 70,000,000 light-years (21 Mpc) in the Eridanus constellation. The galaxy was detected in a wide field of view image taken by the Subaru Telescope using the Subaru Prime Focus Camera (Suprime-Cam). Using the Keck Telescope, a thin disc with a side on orientation was confirmed to be lurking at the center of LEDA 74886, and spinning at a speed of 33 km/s at the orbital radius of half a kpc. LEDA 74886 has a mass of around 109M☉ (Compared to the Milky Way's mass of about 1012M☉).

LEDA 2108986, also known by its Case Western Reserve University designation "Case Galaxy 611", is an extremely isolated, early-type dwarf galaxy with an embedded spiral structure residing in what is likely an intermediate-scale disk. The galaxy was discovered in 1987 by Sanduleak and Pesch, and is located at a distance of about 45.7 megaparsecs (149,000,000 ly) in the Boötes Void and has no significant neighbours within 2.5 Mpc.
NGC 688 is a barred spiral galaxy with starburst activity located 190 million light-years away in the constellation Triangulum. It was discovered by astronomer Heinrich d'Arrest on September 16, 1865 and is a member of the galaxy cluster Abell 262.
NGC 801 is a spiral galaxy with an active galaxy core in the constellation Andromeda. It is estimated to be 174 million light-years from the Milky Way and has a diameter of approximately 174,400 light-years. The object was discovered on September 20, 1885 by the American astronomer Lewis A. Swift.
NGC 620 is a spiral galaxy located in the constellation Andromeda about 123 million light-years from the Milky Way. It was discovered by the French astronomer Édouard Stephan in 1871.
NGC 734 is a lenticular galaxy with a central bar in the constellation Cetus, which is about 538 million light years from the Milky Way. It was discovered on November 9, 1885, by the American astronomer Francis Preserved Leavenworth.
NGC 4326 is a barred spiral galaxy with a ring located about 330 million light-years away in the constellation Virgo. It was discovered by astronomer William Herschel on April 13, 1784, who described it as "vF, S, R, bM, 1st of 3". It is a large galaxy, with a diameter of around 200,000 ly (61 kpc) making it nearly twice the size of the Milky Way. NGC 4326 is also classified as a LINER galaxy. Despite being listed in the Virgo Cluster catalog as VCC 623, it is not a member of the Virgo Cluster but instead a background galaxy.
IC 4271 is a spiral galaxy located some 800 million light-years away in the Canes Venatici constellation. It is 130,000 light-years in diameter. IC 4271 was first located on July 10, 1896, by Stephane Javelle, a French astronomer. It hosts a Seyfert type 2 nucleus, containing an acceleration disc around its supermassive black hole which releases large amounts of radiation, hence its bright appearance. IC 4271 appears to be interacting with its smaller neighboring galaxy, PGC 3096774.
NGC 2606 is a spiral galaxy in the Ursa Major constellation. It lies 648 million light-years away from our home galaxy, the Milky Way. The galaxy was first discovered by John Herschel, a British astronomer on 16th February 1831. According to SIMBAD database, it is classified as a LINER galaxy and a Seyfert type 2 galaxy by Hyperleda.
MCG -03-04-014 or PGC 4167, is a spiral galaxy located 450 million light-years in the constellation of Cetus. MCG -03-04-014 is classified as a luminous infrared galaxy, meaning it has high star-formation regions. MCG -03-04-014 has a galactic center that is obscured by dust lanes and presents an abundant supply of molecular gas. The reasons behind the luminosity of this galaxy are debated among astronomers. Some attribute it to recent starbursts, while others point to activity in the galaxies' supermassive black holes. It is also considered that both factors may contribute. The exact cause remains uncertain.
IC 42 known as PGC 2463 and PGC 911417, is a barred spiral galaxy located in the constellation of Cetus. It is about 750 million light-years away from the solar system and has an estimated diameter of 145,000 light-years, making it bigger compared to the Milky Way galaxy. It was first found by Stephane Javelle, a French astronomer on August 25, 1892. According to SIMBAD, it is considered as an emission-line galaxy.
IC 3686 is a Sc type spiral galaxy located 920 million light-years from the Solar System in the constellation of Virgo. It was discovered by American astronomer, Royal Harwood Frost on May 10, 1904. Frost described it as magnitude 14.3 and RA 12 42 at 36.0, Dec +11 44 22. IC 3686 has an estimated diameter of 270,000 light-years making it larger compared to the Milky Way. and is classified as LINER-type active galactic nucleus galaxy according to SIMBAD. Despite listed in the Virgo Cluster catalogue as VCC 1927, it is not a member of the Virgo Cluster but a background galaxy.
NGC 3758 known as the Owl Galaxy, is a type Sb spiral galaxy in the constellation of Leo. It is located 447 million light-years from the Solar System and an approximate diameter of 70,000 light-years. NGC 3758 was discovered by Ralph Copeland on March 18, 1874, but also independently discovered by Edouard Stephan ten years later.
NGC 4712 is a spiral galaxy located in the constellation Coma Berenices. Its speed relative to the cosmic microwave background is 4,664 ± 20 km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of 68.8 ± 4.8 Mpc. NGC 4712 was discovered by German-British astronomer John Herschel in 1832.
