Yellow, two listed components both visible, an 11th magnitude 40" west and an 8th magnitude 3' east
Checking the Gaia DR2 data shows that the close 11th magnitude star listed as B in WDS is a background star, while the more distant 8th magnitude star listed as C does appear to be a companion with comparable parallax and proper motion
