N. N. Samus, Institute of Astronomy, Moscow, informs us that the designation V2574 Oph has been given to this nova (cf. IAUC 8323). Additional magnitudes of V2574 Oph: Apr. 11.38 UT, [13.5: (ASAS-3 image; via H. Yamaoka, Kyushu University); 14.780 and 14.785, 10.9 (K. Haseda, Aichi, Japan; photographic; prediscovery; via Yamaoka); 14.782, 10.5 (Y. Nakamura, Mie, Japan; photographic; independent discovery forwarded by J. Watanabe, National Astronomical Observatory of Japan); 15.785, about 10.5 (A. Takao, Kitakyushu, Japan; via Yamaoka); 16.146, 10.4 (P. Schmeer, Bischmisheim, Germany; visual); 16.403, V = 10.29 (J. D. West, Mulvane, KS); 16.409, B = 11.74 (West); 16.417, R_c = 9.52 (West); 16.803, 10.7 (A. Pearce, Nedlands, W. Australia; visual). Yamaoka adds that his measurement of the position of V2574 Oph from an R- band CCD image taken by B. Monard on Apr. 16.144 yields R.A. = 17h38m45s.51, Decl. = -23o28'18".6 (equinox 2000.0; 95 UCAC2 reference stars).
