GIANCARLO CORTINI (Monte Maggiore Observatory-Predappio-ITALY) reports the discovery of a possible supernova in NGC 5339 by 0.35m. Sch.-Cass.F/5.5 + SXVR-H9 CCD camera on several unfiltered images taken on: 2013/03/03.141; 90sec.exposure,mag.+14.7,limit mag. about+19.5; the new object is located at: R.A. 13 54 00.683, DECL. -07 55 43.77(2000.0) wich is : 8 arcsec N and 5.7 arcsec E from the centre of the parent galaxy. My past images of the same field taken on 2012/05/17.90 showed nothing at that position (limit mag.+19.0) and it doesn't appear on P.O.S.S. II red and blue plates. No known minor planet is marked in that position for the time of the discovery.

This possible supernova in NGC 5339 was detected with 62 x 0.5 min images using a luminance filter Astrometry: RA 13 54 00.66 Dec -07 55 44.1 Photometry: 14.65 +/- 0.07 L (V for ref) These data were collected remotely by Joseph Brimacombe, Cairns, Australia.
