Re: (IAAC) NGC2313 a Dark Nebula??
I am not sure if you have taken a look at this site
http://www.ngcic.com/ngcicdb.asp
it doesn't have a magnitude, but it does say that it is a bright nebula and
in the catalog notes it says that it is a diffuse nebula and a star. Thought
that might be of some help in identifying the object. Best of luck!
