PGC 046892

Hi!
Merry Xmas to you all!
I am trying to find the galaxy PGC 046892, alias POX 186 in the news,
on Guide (version 8). But it just says *Not a valid object*. On the
other hand if I try PGC 046891 or PGC 046893, it finds the requested
galaxy. What's happening?
Strange as the web-site for the LEDA/PGC catalog contains some
information dated to the 1980's and 90's, for this object. Thus the
LEDA-catalog on Guide should contain it, just as the preceding object
etc. So what is Guide doing here?
I have found the coordinates for 046892 on Simbad's web-site, showing
it lies near Spica. But I wish I hadn't to go there, or any other
place on the web. So what's Guide doing here, not finding POX 186?
With regards
Arne L
