Further to IAUC 8402 and 8495, G. Pojmanski reports the ASAS discovery of a possible nova located at R.A. = 17h49m24s, Decl. = -13o00'00" (equinox 2000.0); he gives the following V magnitudes for the new object: Mar. 14.389 UT, [14; 18.345, 13.3; 21.374, 11.8; 27.352, 12.7. G. Masi, University of Rome 'Tor Vergata', reports that he and R. Wilcox obtained five unfiltered CCD images of this object remotely on Apr. 4.353 (with the new star at mag 11.5) using the 0.36-m f/7 'SoTIE' telescope at Las Campanas, yielding the following precise position: R.A. = 17h49m24s.57, Decl. = -12o59'59".2. Masi adds that nothing is visible at this location on Digitized Sky Survey images (including a 1982 plate with a limiting magnitude of roughly 19.5).
