F. Ciabattari, E. Mazzoni, M. Rossi and P. Campaner report the discovery of an apparent supernova (unfiltered magnitude = 17.2) on images (limiting magnitude 19.5) obtained on November 20.17 UT and November 22.08 UT with a 0.5m Newtonian telescope + CCD FLI Proline 4710 camera at Borgo a Mozzano - Italy and with a 0.4m Newtonian telescope + CCD Atik 428ex at Ponte di Piave - Italy in the course of the Italian Supernovae Search Project. The new object is located at A.R. = 11h02m35s.20, Decl. = +50°35'09".4 (equinox 2000.0, astrometry with respect to USNO-B1 stars) which is 2 arcsec east and 13 arcsec north of the centre of Galaxy UGC 6109.

This transient was observed on 2014 11 24.99067 by G. Masi and P. Catalano, 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. 17.2 (R mags for the reference stars from UCAC-4). We also performed astrometry, getting the following end figures: 35.21; 09.8 (J2000.0, mean residuals of 0.2" on both axes).
