We report spectroscopic observations of the recent M31 nova candidate (M31OT 004345.5+410755; M31N 2010-09c?) discovered by Nishiyama and Kabashima (Miyaki-Argenteus Observatory, Japan) on 2010 Sep. 30.566 UT (private communication) and confirmed by Pietsch et al. (ATel #2896). At our request, a spectrum (410-950 nm) of the nova candidate was obtained less than a day post discovery on 2010 Oct. 01.39 UT with the Marcario Low-Resolution Spectrograph on the 9.2m Hobby-Eberly Telescope (HET), possibly while the object was still increasing in brightness.
