Perez-Martinez, XMM-Newton Science Operations Centre, report that an XMM-Newton target-of- opportunity observation on Feb. 10.7 UT shows a bright source at R.A. = 16h31m48s.6, Decl. = -48o49'00" (equinox 2000.0; uncertainty about 4") with both EPIC cameras (p-n and MOS) during a 25000-s exposure. This position is consistent with that measured for IGR J16318-4848 by INTEGRAL (IAUC 8063). The p-n count rate shows clear evidence for variability covering a range between about 0.2 and 0.75 counts/s. Images from both EPIC cameras, together with a light curve and spectrum from the p-n camera, are provided at http://xmm.vilspa.esa.es/external/xmm_news/items/IGR/index.shtml.
