Members
The table below lists galaxies that have been consistently identified as group members in the Nearby Galaxies Catalog, the survey of Fouque et al., the Lyons Groups of Galaxies (LGG) Catalog, and the three group lists created from the Nearby Optical Galaxy sample of Giuricin et al.
| Name | Type | R.A. (J2000) | Dec. (J2000) | Redshift (km/s) | Apparent Magnitude |

| NGC 3956 | SA(s)c | 11h 54m 00.7s | -20° 34′ 02″ | 1645 ± 5 | 13.1 |
| NGC 3957 | SA0 | 11h 54m 01.5s | -19° 34′ 08″ | 1637 ± 19 | 13.1 |
| NGC 3981 | SAB(s)bc pec | 11h 56m 07.5s | -19° 53′ 46″ | 1723 ± 4 | 12.1 |
| NGC 4024 | SB0 | 11h 58m 31.2s | -18° 20′ 49″ | 1694 ± 15 | 13.2 |
| NGC 4027 | SB(s)dm | 11h 59m 30.2s | -19° 15′ 55″ | 1671 ± 6 | 11.7 |
| NGC 4033 | E6 | 12h 00m 34.7s | -17° 50′ 33″ | 1617 ± 20 | 13.2 |
| NGC 4050 | SB(r)ab | 12h 02m 54.0s | -16° 22′ 25″ | 1761 ± 8 | 13.1 |
| PGC 37476 | SB(rs)c | 11h 55m 50.6s | -18° 11′ 47″ | 1596 ± 8 | 14.0 |
| PGC 38087 | SB(s)cd | 12h 03m 24.4s | -19° 31′ 21″ | 1664 ± 7 | 15.0 |
| UGCA 254 | SAB(s)cd | 11h 54m 49.5s | -16° 51′ 50″ | 1813 ± 6 | 14.5 |
| UGCA 257 | SB(s)m | 11h 58m 25.4s | -22° 26′ 24″ | 1795 ± 5 | 13.6 |
Additionally, the references above frequently but inconsistently identify PGC 37513, PGC 37565, and UGCA 270 as members of this group. Based on the above references, the exact membership of this group is somewhat uncertain as is the exact number of galaxies within the group.

Famous quotes containing the word members:
“...wasting the energies of the race by neglecting to develop the intelligence of the members to whom its most precious resources must be entrusted, already seems a childish absurdity.”
—Anna Eugenia Morgan (18451909)
“The members of a body-politic call it the state when it is passive, the sovereign when it is active, and a power when they compare it with others of its kind. Collectively they use the title people, and they refer to one another individually as citizens when speaking of their participation in the authority of the sovereign, and as subjects when speaking of their subordination to the laws of the state.”
—Jean-Jacques Rousseau (17121778)
“Sometimes the best way to keep peace in the family is to keep the members of the family apart for awhile.”
—Franklin D. Roosevelt (18821945)
