Constellation Queue of Mice (sriqmÌs.)
This constellation represents the Chief Mouse (α Indi in our nomenclature) leading his eleven warriors. It lies to the south of the Merman and the Ibex and passes our constellations Indus (the Indian), Microscopium (the microscope), Piscis Austrinus (the southern fish), and Sculptor.
The Merman is pouring water over the last three mice in the Queue. They are, however, undaunted, because they are mice and not men.

The 102 naked-eye stars
In the ‘Our designation’ column, letters (sometimes with superscript numbers) in front of constellation symbols refer to Bayer’s catalogue or to variable star designations, and numbers to Flamsteed’s catalogue. Row colours roughly approximate the stars’ colours. The links lead to the stars’ entries in the SIMBAD Astronomical Database.
