Additional apparent supernovae have been reported from CCD images: SN 2003lb in UGC 2850 by M. Ory (Delemont, Switzerland, 0.61-m reflector), and SN 2003lc in UGC 934 and SN 2003ld in UGC 148 by T. Puckett and L. Cox (cf. IAUC 8225; 0.50-m reflector). SN 2003 UT R.A. (2000.0) Decl. Mag.

SNe 2003lc and 2003ld were confirmed on CCD frames taken by Puckett on Dec. 27.15 and 29.15, respectively, but both new objects were absent from his images taken during 1998-2002.
