4 Otero, Sebastian Alberto 2011-01-06 01:25 UTC Primary record creation. Position from Downes (2001) adopted.
Downes remar: "No candidate, field map shown; the discovery (Schwab, 1901, Astr. Nachr., 155, 219) was published 23 years after the fact, and gives a position to a precision of probably no better than 0.5 degrees; there are no subsequent confirmed sightings."
