SUPERNOVA 2004ey IN UGC 11816
     Further to IAUC 8418, O. Trondal and M. Schwartz report their
discovery of an apparent supernova (mag about 16.0) on unfiltered
CCD images taken with the 0.81-m Tenagra II telescope on Oct. 14.2
and 16.1 UT.   SN 2004ey is located at R.A. = 21h49m07s.81, Decl. =
+0o26'39".2 (equinox 2000.0), which is 8".0 east and 12".8 south of
the nucleus of UGC 11816.  SN 2004ey is not present on Digitized
Sky Survey images from 1954 and 1986 (limiting mag about 21).


SUPERNOVA 2004ez IN NGC 3430
     S. Nakano, Sumoto, Japan, reports the discovery by K. Itagaki
(Teppo-cho, Yamagata, Japan, 0.60-m reflector) of an apparent
supernova (red mag 17.3) on unfiltered CCD images taken on Oct.
15.82 and 16.74 UT, with a prediscovery frame taken on Sept. 30.83
showing the new object at mag 17.2.  SN 2004ez is located at R.A. =
10h52m15s.11, Decl. = +32o57'20".1 (equinox 2000.0), which is 46"
east and 18".7 north of the center of NGC 3430.  Nothing is visible
at this location on Itagaki's survey frames from 2000 Nov. 5 and
2001 Mar. 24 (limiting mag 18.5) or on Digitized Sky Survey images.
K. Kadota (Ageo, Japan, 0.25-m f/5 reflector + unfiltered CCD)
confirmed the presence of the new object at mag 17.2 on Oct. 16.79.
