F. Ciabattari, E. Mazzoni and G. Petroni report the discovery of an apparent supernova (unfiltered magnitude = 17.8) on images (limiting magnitude 19.5) obtained on July 18.95 UT and July 19.92 UT with a 0.5m Newtonian telescope + CCD FLI Proline 4710 camera at Borgo a Mozzano - Italy, in the course of the Italian Supernovae Search Project. The new object is located at A.R. = 20h04m34s.85, Decl. = +12°44'16".8 (equinox 2000.0, astrometry with respect to UCAC-2 stars) which is 4 arcsec east and 7 arcsec south of the centre of Galaxy UGC 11512.

This possible supernova in UGC 11512 was detected with 11 x 10 min images using a luminance filter Photometry: Mag 18.30 +/- 0.37 C (V for ref) Astrometry: RA 20 04 34.83 Dec +12 44 17.5 These data were collected remotely by Joseph Brimacombe, Coral Towers Observatory, Cairns, Australia.

This transient was observed on 2014 07 25.82328 by G. Masi, remotely using the 17"-f/6.8 robotic unit part of the Virtual Telescope Project facility, at Bellatrix Astronomical Observatory in Ceccano, Italy. 120-seconds exposures, unfiltered, show the source at mag. 18.2 (R mags for the reference stars from UCAC-4). We also performed astrometry, getting the following end figures: 34.84; 16.2 (J2000.0, mean residuals of 0.2" on both axes).
