report
on behalf of the Swift UVOT team:

UVOT observed GRB 090726 (Page et al., GCN Circ 9706) with a finding
chart exposure of 150 seconds with the White filter starting 3610
seconds after the BAT trigger. No credible afterglow candidate has been
found in the initial data products. The 8'x8' region for the list of
sources generated on-board covers 100% of the XRT error circle reported
by Page et al. (GCN Cic 9707). The list of sources is typically complete
to about 18 mag.  No correction has been made for the expected  
extinction
corresponding to E(B-V) of 0.04.
