  M. De Pasquale and H. Ziaeepour (MSSL/UCL) report on the
behalf of the Swift/UVOT:

  The optical afterglow of GRB070721B (Ziaeepour et al. GCN 6640, Schady
et al. 6641) is detected by Swift/UVOT in White filter and V filter
finding chart exposures, taken 100s-200s and 207-607s after the BAT
trigger. It is not detected at 3sigma level in other exposures, either
single or summed ones in all filters, till ~7000s after the trigger.

  In the following table, we report the magnitudes of the afterglow for
the exposures where the source is detected with at least 3sigma level,
and 3sigma upper limits otherwise.
