Description

According to the Cambridge Photographic Atlas of Galaxies, NGC 90 and 93 have a very similar redshift so I'm not not sure why Arp included them in his list.

Around the pair that was my main target the other galaxies in the foreground are pretty much all part of the NGC 80 group, a cluster about 80 Mpc from us.

Note that PixInsight and astrobin both mislabel NGC 90 as 91, Simbad considers 90 to be the canonical identifier:
