Abstract
LÜ1 has suggested that the large extended radio source PKS 0320–37 (Fornax A), identified for many years with the tenth magnitude SO galaxy NGC 1316 (ref. 2), should really be identified with a seventeenth magnitude blue stellar object. We propose to show here why this new identification should not be accepted.
