U. Munari, Istituto Nazionale di Astrofisica, Padova Astronomical Observatory; and S. Moretti and S. Tomaselli, ANS (Asiago Novae and Symbiotic stars) collaboration, write that a low-resolution (400-780 nm, 0.54 nm/pixel) spectrum of N Vul 2007 (cf. IAUC 8861, 8862) was obtained on Aug. 9.945 UT with a 0.42-m reflector in Bastia (Ravenna), Italy, showing a blue continuum with strong hydrogen Balmer and Fe II multiplet-42 emission lines, all displaying deep P-Cyg profiles, with absorption components displaced on average by -2100 km/s from emission components. Fe II multiplets 38, 48, 49, and 74, and O I 777.2-nm, are seen in absorption, with weak emission components. He I 587.6-, 667.8-, and 706.5-nm are seen in weak absorption. The object is therefore confirmed as a nova, of the Fe II type, observed close to maximum optical brightness. CCD photometry on Aug. 9.889 yields V = 8.24 and B-V = +0.52.
