HD 76236 (HR 3543) is a solitary[11] star in the southern circumpolar constellation Apus. It has an apparent magnitude of 5.77,[2] allowing it to be faintly seen with the naked eye. Located 612 light years away,[1] it is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of km/s.[5]

HD 76236 has a stellar classification of K5 III,[3] indicating that the object is a red giant. At present it has 114% the mass of the Sun[7] but has expanded to a diameter of 43.19 R.[8] It shines at 282 times the luminosity of the Sun from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 3,956 K,[9] giving it an orange red glow. HD 76236 is metal enriched due to a metallicity almost twice that of the Sun[7] and spins with a projected rotational velocity of km/s.[10]
