"ASASSN-14jv was present in two images obtained on
2014 Nov 9 but undetected (V>15.7) on 2014-11-07.2
and earlier. There is a nearby blue source in the Kepler
Input Catalog (18:53:28.814, +42:03:43.57), with g=19.1,
r=19.4, and i=19.6, 0.6" away from our nominal position
in the discovery image (ASAS-SN image scale is
7.5"/pixel)."
This is KIC 6583415 (see also below).

"Additionally, there is also a GALEX source 0.021' away
from our nominal position."
This is GALEX J185328.7+420343 (see also below).
