Three apparent supernovae have been reported from unfiltered CCD images: 2005io independently by E. Lee and W. Li (via LOSS/KAIT; cf. IAUC 8625; the tabulated data below for 2005io are from KAIT) and by T. Boles (Coddenham, England, 0.35-m reflector); 2005ip by Boles; and 2005iq by H. Khandrika and W. Li (LOSS/KAIT). Additional magnitudes for 2005io for SN 2005io in UGC 3361: 1989 Dec. 3, [21.0 (Digitized Sky Survey red plate; via Boles); 1992 Nov. 24, [21.5 (DSS, blue); 2005 Mar. 14 UT, [19.5 (Boles); Oct. 10, [19.5 (Boles); 28.46, [19.5 (KAIT); Nov. 4.007, 18.6 (Boles; position end figures 24s.62, 06".4). Additional magnitudes for 2005ip in NGC 2906: 1994 Feb. 9, [20.5 (DSS, blue, via Boles); 1999 Feb. 20, [21.0 (DSS, red); 2004 Dec. 6 and 2005 Jan. 21, [19.5 (Boles); Nov. 5.261, 14.6 (C. Colesanti, C. Jacques, E. Pimentel, and T. Napoleao, Belo Horizonte, Brazil); 5.682, 14.8 (K. Itagaki, Yamagata, Japan; via S. Nakano, Sumoto; position end figures 06s.40, 44".2). Additional KAIT magnitudes for 2005iq in MCG -03-1-8: Oct. 9.22, [19.0; Nov. 6.21, 17.0. SN 2005 UT R.A. (2000.0) Decl. Mag.

Filippenko and R. J. Foley, University of California, Berkeley, report that inspection of CCD spectra (range 330-920 nm), obtained on Nov. 5 UT with the Keck I 10-m telescope (+ LRIS), shows that SN 2005io is of type II, shortly after the explosion. The broad hydrogen Balmer lines exhibit P-Cyg profiles, but in the case of H_alpha the emission component greatly dominates over the absorption component. The continuum is very blue, and He I 587-nm absorption is present.
