Further to IAUC 7709, M. Fiaschi, F. Di Mille, and D. Tiveron, report the discovery of two apparent novae in M31 (= NGC 224) from H_alpha CCD images. One new object is located at R.A. = 0h42m58s.34, Decl. = +41o16'07".8 (equinox 2000.0), which is 158" east and 1" south of the center of M31; available H_alpha magnitudes: Jan. 19, [18; June 19.034 UT, 16.5; 20.035, 16.6. The second new object is located at R.A. = 0h42m52s.22, Decl. = +41o13'54".2, which is 89" east and 134" south of the center of M31; available H_alpha magnitudes: Jan. 19, [18; June 19.034, 15.6; 20.035, 15.7. The reference stars for the H_alpha photometry are from Ciardullo et al. (1987, Ap.J. 318, 520). Generally, after maximum, the nova color index R-[H_alpha] = +2 and remains approximately constant; V-[H_alpha] tends to change from +2 to +3 with time.
