Hi Elisabetta Your unit cell is pseudo F222, with twin law (-h,-k,h+k+l):
iotbx.explore_metric_symmetry --unit_cell="47.75 33.61 91.04 90.000 103.635 90.000" --space_group=C2 (output below) Did you rule out twinning? Try runing phenix.xtriage for some intensity stats and/or phenix.refine for lsq twin refinement and see where the twin fraction goes. Contact me personally if you need help or if you are not sure how to run things.

For each pointgroup, a list of compatible spacegroups will be listed.
