We find that within it's large star-forming complex NGC 5462 WR stars are preferentially located in the core whilst RSGs are found in the halo, suggesting two bursts of star-formation. A review of our WR candidates reveals that only ∼30\% are detected in the archival broad-band ACS imaging whilst only ∼50\% are associated with HII regions.}, language = {en} }
