Hi there. According to MNRAS, this galaxy is much further away than reported in this Wikipedia entry. The object is quite far from the Local Group, perhaps also quite far from the Local Volume. For this reason it must be removed from the list of nearest galaxies. https://academic.oup.com/mnras/article/397/3/1672/1078993 "KKH 60. This is an irregular galaxy of low-surface brightness with an unreliable estimate of radial velocity, +286 km s−1 (Makarov, Karachentsev & Burenkov 2003). Judging from its new radial velocity, +1670 km s−1, measured at Arecibo (M. Haynes, personal communication), KKH 60 resides far beyond the LV".
