IC 2529 is NGC 3081. Swift's position is just an arcminute to the south, but there is no obvious "eF * in contact" with the galaxy. I wonder if Swift has made a transcription error here. For example, there is an "eF * in contact" with IC 2528 = NGC 3084 (which see), the immediately preceding object in his eleventh list.― IC Notes by Harold Corwin
