Solarium (constellation)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Solarium (Latin for sundial) was a constellation located between the constellations of Horologium, Dorado and Hydrus. It occurred in the 1835 star map of Elijah Hinsdale Burritt [1]. The origin of the constellation is unknown, but it is possible that it just occurred in this star map. It was never popular and is no longer in use.
