UGC 4904 is a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Lynx. Its velocity with respect to the cosmic microwave background is 1880 ± 15 km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of 90.5 ± 6.4 Mly (27.74 ± 1.96 Mpc).[1] The first known reference to this galaxy comes from Part 2 of the Morphological Catalogue of Galaxies, published in 1964, where it is listed as MCG +07-19-054.[4]
