The author, in a previous article, provided details characterizing an object situated at 12:40:07.829 - 11:36:47.38 (in J2000) in the halo of M104 as an SBc-type galaxy with a possible active nucleus (Quiroga, 2023). This object was merely listed as IrS in available catalogs, suggesting the designation ‘Iris Galaxy’. However, the author mistakenly associated the X-ray emission with this object. The linked emission origi-nates from 12:40:06.24 -11:36:47.7, which is less than 1 arcsecond in Right Ascension and 0.4 arcseconds in Declination from the so-called Galaxia Iris, which, incidentally, was correctly characterized in the coordinates determined by the author (12:40:07.829 -11:36:47.38 in J2000) in catalogs of the Virtual Observatory, such as NED. They are separated in RA by 7.829 - 6.24 = 1.59 seconds or 1.59 x 14.7 = 23.4 arcsec. The position of M104 GCC RZ2551 is 12 40 06.237 -11 36 47.96, coinciding with the X-ray source position within 0.3 arc seconds. Therefore, any assumptions regarding the Lx made in the paper should be disregarded.
