     T. Puckett, Ellijay, GA, U.S.A.; and R. Gorelli, Rome, Italy, report the
discovery of an apparent supernova (mag 17.0) on unfiltered CCD images
(limiting mag 19.1) taken with a 0.60-m reflector at Ellijay on June 1.31 UT
in the course of the Puckett Observatory Supernova Search.  The new object,
which was confirmed at mag 17.0 on images (limiting mag 19.3) taken by T.
Orff on June 2.27 with a 0.60-m reflector at Ellijay, is located at R.A. =
18h19m11s.93, Decl. = +42o48'21".8 (equinox 2000.0), which is 10".3 east and
1".0 south of the center of UGC 11205.  Nothing is visible at this position
on images taken by Puckett on 2007 Sept. 4 (limiting mag 18.9).
