I need the above for a hydraulic pump on board our boat. I've googled it without a great deal of success, apart from a few brands I've never heard of.

I have quite a few litres of Comma ATF AQM which gives no ISO number but says its suitable for applications requiring Dexron 11 and 11D. Any idea if this is suitable? If not where should I look for the ISO 46 stuff?

Thanks in advance.

I believe that Shell Tellus is sometimes used for hydraulic Citroëns in places where it's hard to find the official LHM fluid. It's dead easy to find LHM (green stuff) in the UK, so if you are only needing a small quantity it might be worth using that.
 
I know the OP is sorted, but if anyone is looking for obscure oils in small quantities, I found these people very helpful:

They went to a fair bit of trouble for me when I was looking for some obscure oil for an old lathe hydraulic drive and were happy to sell me 1 gallon of the appropriate stuff.
