376 Notes to Catalogue of xodiacal Stars. 
—-0"04; Decl. +006. That of 3,2, R.A.+0”17,and Decl. 
+010, But Bessel upon examination of Fl. obs. finds the 
distance of the two stars in his time to be as nearly as possible 
the same as determined by Piazzi; whence arises considerable 
doubtas to the'correctness of the proper motions above stated. 
80 Tauri.) Mayer’s declination requires —5’. 
M. 160.) In the first edition of Piazzi’s Catalogue, the declina- 
tion is 1° too little, and it is called 82 Tauri, which latter 
star has no existence. Bode 264, 265, 266 are one and 
the same. 
87 a Tauri.) Double. Hers. VI. 66.  ‘* Extremely unequal. 
L.r.; S.d. Distance 87’"75. Pos. 52°-97 n. following.” 
Sir William measured the apparent diameter of the large 
star; with 460, it was 18; with 932, 125; disc well de- 
fined. With respect to the proper motion of the star, 
Bessel makes it in R.A.+0”04; in Declination —0”10. 
Bouvard (Conn. de T. 1821, p. 292) makes it+0"147 in 
R.A., which increase is probably occasioned by assuming 
the precession less than that of Bessel. Bouvard’s position 
is given in the present catalogue. That of Piazzi is—O”9 
in R.A., in declination exactly equal.

9 o. 2 Orionis) In Piazzi the character is misprinted o. 
M. 180.) Piazzi supposes this to be the star intended, as 100 
of the Brit. Cat. which is there laid down R.A.+9%, Decl. 
—47%’. On the other hand, Herschel has pointed out an 
observation of 100 Tauri in Fl, Hestoria Célestis, and to all 
appearance it is a good one, though the star is not now to be 
found in that place; and he therefore concludes it to be lost. 
M. 181.) Treble. One of the small stars, 255 of Piazzi, R.A. 
—39"2, Decl. +22”2. Mag. 8. Hers. V. 57. ‘* More than 
one degree n. following 9 Orionis towards 1135 Tauri ; the

with its real place. It seems we ought to read them thus: More than I°
