I have just completed a crossword. It contained a clue. The clue read "Constellation in the southern hemisphere near to Scorpius and Ara". I had the letters N?R?A. I would usually know the answer to such a question. So, curiosity led me to find a list of constellations on the net and I got Norma. I had not heard of it before. I went to PocketStars to see where this constellation was. There is no reference to Norma in PS. Is there some kind of cut-off in PS for certain constellations or has official recognition of some names not been given?
Thanks to anybody who can provide an answer,

Kev

For the PDA version, I removed six small constellations which consisted of single lines just to reduce screen clutter - the preeminent challenge of designing for Pocket PC. These included Norma and Mensa. Unfortunately, this truncation migrated to the PC version also. The soon to be released SP version restores these six to their rightful place. Sorry for the hassle.
