Morrell, Las Campanas Observatory; G. Folatelli, IPMU, University of Tokyo; J. Anderson, Universidad de Chile; and G. Pignata, Universidad Andres Bello, on behalf of the Millennium Center for Supernova Science, report that optical spectroscopy (range 364-920 nm) of 2010ku (cf. CBET 2591) was obtained on Jan. 3.3 UT with the Las Campanas 2.5-m du Pont telescope (+ WFCCD). Cross-correlation with a library of supernova spectra using the "Supernova Identification" code (SNID; Blondin and Tonry 2007, Ap.J. 666, 1024) shows that 2010ku is a type-IIP supernova about a month after explosion.
