SUPERNOVA 2010kv IN UGC 4216
     S. B. Cenko, W. Li, University of California, Berkeley, F. Bian, and N.
Smith, University of Arizona, report that inspection of a CCD spectrum (range
350-800 nm), obtained on Jan. 12 UT with the Blue Spectrograph mounted on the
6.5-m MMT, reveals that SN 2010kv (CBET 2596) is a type-II supernova.  Cross-
correlation with a library of supernova spectra (using the "SuperNova
IDentification" code; Blondin and Tonry 2007, Ap.J. 666, 1024) indicates that
2010kv most closely resembles the type-IIP supernova 2006bp at several months
past maximum light.
