Édouard Stephan discovered NGC 6336 = St VII-16.

400/500mm - 17.5" (8/1/89): faint, fairly small, elongated ~N-S, small bright core. Last in a group of five NGC galaxies located roughly 50' NW of M92. Located 2.5' N of mag 10 SAO 46594.

600/800mm - 24" (9/5/18): at 375x; fairly faint, moderately large, slightly elongated N-S, broad weak concentration but no distinct core or nucleus. An extremely faint star (mag 16.5) is at the west edge. A mag 10 star (HD 156583) lies 2.5' S. PGC 2231801, located 5.6' NNW, was easily seen as a faint, round glow (V = 14.8) of 20" diameter. A mag 12 star is 0.6' N. CGCG 2225-088 and -090, a 2' pair of 15th mag galaxies, were seen 15' N.
