Dear colleagues,

 Greg Bolt has kindly sent us Aug. 8 time-series data of new DN in 
Taurus (vsnet-alert 10418).
The data show clear superhumps with an amplitude of 0.2 mag which 
indicate that the object is a new SU UMa-type dwarf nova. The period 
of superhumps is around 0.08 d.

Further observations are encouraged.

Best regards,
Hiroyuki Maehara
