A progenitor candidate from Gaia DR2 is 3" away at R.A. 15h36m01.725s, Decl. -16°42'58.88" (equinox J2000.0, epoch 2015.5; Gmag. 19.75). Other designations are ASAS J153601-1643.0 (single outburst on 2004 April 18.28 UT, Vmag. = 14.3), CSS_J153601.6-164301 (Vmag. range 14.8 [single outburst on 2007 March 14.49 UT] - 20.7) = SSS_J153601.7-164259 (Vmag. range ~17.6-20.1), USNO-B1.0 0732-0339455 (Bmag. 20.83, Rmag. 19.24), GSC2.3 S90F008636 (Fmag. 19.23, Bjmag. 19.86), PSO J153601.737-164258.755 (blue star, gmag. 20.11, rmag. 19.97), WISE J153601.75-164258.9, GALEX J153601.7-164300 (fuv_mag. 19.64, nuv_mag. 19.69), etc. No outbursts of this object were detected by the ASAS-SN Sky Patrol (Shappee et al. 2014ApJ...788...48S and Kochanek et al. 2017PASP..129j4502K) between 2012 February 27 and 2018 September 21 (no observations since then); complete light curve at https://asas-sn.osu.edu/light_curves/b4c4e9fc-8a4c-4b79-a7c8-a55666c0338e. This is probably a dwarf nova with at least three recorded outbursts. --- Patrick Schmeer (Saarbrücken-Bischmisheim, Germany)
