   Nakajima-san's observations of OT_J084555.1+033930 (new DN in Hya)
on Jan 25 now clearly show superhumps.  The superhump period is
slightly shorter than 1.5 hr.  The object is likely a large-amplitude
SU UMa-type dwarf nova rather than a typical WZ Sge-type star.
(cf. vsnet-alert 9834).

   More analysis will be presented by Maehara-san.
