PGC 66004
(= ESO 341-032 = MCG -07-43-012)

A magnitude 13.3 spiral galaxy (type SAB(s)dm (cc)) in
Microscopium (RA 21 03 33.4, Dec -39 26 48)
Note About Classification: The type is taken from the Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies. The "cc" means that the galaxy is so poorly structured that it is basically a cluster of clumps, each of which is a star-forming region.

PGC 66078
(= ESO 286-044 = MCG -07-43-017)

A magnitude 13.5(?) elliptical galaxy (type E4) in
Microscopium (RA 21 05 38.7, Dec -42 46 53)
Note About Classification: The type is taken from the Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies.

PGC 66142
(= ESO 187-051)

A magnitude 14.5(?) spiral galaxy (type SAB(s)m) in
Indus (RA 21 07 32.8, Dec -54 57 09)
Note About Classification: The type is taken from the Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies.

PGC 66239
(= ESO 341-032 = MCG -06-46-010)

A magnitude 13.5 spiral galaxy (type S pec spw?) in
Microscopium (RA 21 10 00.5, Dec -37 30 14)
Note About Classification: The type is taken from the Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies. "spw?" means that this may be a "warped spindle" (that is, an edge-on galaxy with a warped disk), which makes determining the classification more difficult.

PGC 66445
(= ESO 107-016)

A magnitude 14.3 spiral galaxy (type SAB(s)dm sp) in
Pavo (RA 21 16 06.0, Dec -64 49 00)
Note About Classification: The type is taken from the Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies. The "sp" stands for "spindle", meaning the galaxy is seen edge-on, making it harder than usual to determine its classification.
