Corwin's Notes

===== NGC 5175 is most likely involved with one of the stars superposed on NGC 5174 (which see for the evidence), probably the brighter southern star.

Steve's Notes

===== NGC 5175 17.5" (5/27/95): A mag 14 star is superimposed on the south end of NGC 5174, just 45" from the center. This is possibly NGC 5175.
