P. Luckas, Perth, W. Australia; O. Trondal, Oslo, Norway; and M. Schwartz, Patagonia, AZ, U.S.A., report the discovery of an apparent supernova (mag 17.0) on unfiltered CCD frames taken with the 0.35-m telescope at Perth on Apr. 2.47 and 5.54 UT in the course of the Tenagra Observatory Supernova Search. The new object is located at R.A. = 6h41m02s.51, Decl. = -38o02'19".0 (equinox 2000.0), which is 4".6 west and 10".1 south of the center of ESO 308-G25 (which itself has position end figures 02s.90, 08".9). Nothing was visible at the position of 2008bq on an image taken by Luckas on Mar. 17.55 (limiting magnitude about 18.0) or on a Digitized Sky Survey image from 1994 Nov. 11 (limiting red mag 21.0).
