On 2008, May 20.6 (39.9 days after outburst) we obtained an XMM- Newton observation of the recent nova V2491 Cyg during the supersoft source (SSS) phase (Osborne et al. 2008, ATel #1542). The exposure time in the Reflection Grating Spectrometers (RGS) was 39.2ksec, and the average count rate in the RGS1 is 13.1 counts per sec (c/s). The light curve extracted from the RGS1 is highly variable.
