Akira Arai, Kohyama Astronomical Observatory, Kyoto Sangyo University, reports that low-resolution spectra (R about 550) of M31N 2011-01a were obtained on 2011 Jan. 11.49 UT using the 1.3-m Araki telescope at Koyama Astronomical Observatory. The spectra show clearly P-Cyg profiles in H-alpha, H-beta, and Fe II lines accompanied by strong absorptions on a blue continuum. The absorption minimum in H-alpha indicates that its expansion velocity is about 1300 km/s, suggesting that the object is a "Fe II"-type classical nova near maximum light.
