We report on time-resolved photometry of the 2005 July superoutburst of the dwarf nova, 2QZ J021927.9-304545. The resultant light curves showed conspicuous superhumps with a period of 0.081113(19) days, confirming the SU UMa nature of the object. Although we missed the maximum phase of the outburst, the amplitude of the superoutburst well exceeded 5 mag. This value is slightly larger than that of typical SU UMa-type dwarf novae. The superhump period decreased as time elapsed, as can be seen in most SU UMa-type dwarf novae. Based on the archive of ASAS-3, the recurrence time of a superoutburst of the variable turned out to be about 400 days. This value is typical of well known SU UMa stars. The distance to this system was roughly estimated as 370(+20, -60) pc using an empirical relation.
