Caption: Figure 1.

Left: MaNGA FOV of NGC 3191. Image adopted from the SDSS DR14. Right: velocity map inferred from the position of the Hα line relative a redshift of z = 0.031. In the top right region of the map there are about 30 pixels that show an additional feature just redward of the Hα line that is clearly not intrinsic to the nebular line emission from NGC 3191, we therefore masked out the area where this unidentified feature appears.
