M. Salvo, J. Norris, and B. Schmidt, Australian National University (ANU), report that a spectrum (range 380-900 nm) of SN 2003hx (cf. IAUC 8199), taken on Sept. 13.78 UT at the ANU 2.3-m telescope (+ Double Beam Spectrograph), shows it to be a type-Ia supernova around maximum light. The minimum of the Si II 635.5-nm line gives an expansion velocity of about 12000 km/s if the NED recession velocity of 2142 km/s for the host galaxy is adopted.
