S. Valenti, A. Pastorello, S. Benetti, L. Tomasella, F. Bufano, and P. Ochner, Istituto Nazionale di Astrofisica, Osservatorio Astronomico di Padova, on behalf of a larger collaboration, report that a spectrogram of PSN J02320796+4105005 = SN 2011hx, obtained on Nov. 19.86 UT with the 1.82-m Copernico Telescope (+ AFOSC; range 340-790 nm, resolution 2.2 nm), shows that it is a young type-II supernova. The best fit to this spectrum found using a library of supernova spectra via GELATO (Harutyunyan et al. 2008, A.Ap. 488, 383; available at website URL https://gelato.tng.iac.es/login.cgi), suggests that 2011hx is similar to SN 2007od (Inserra et al. 2011, MNRAS 417, 261) a few days past maximum.
