The Nearby Supernova Factory reports the discovery of supernova SNF20070731-005 in images obtained Jul 31.5 UTC using the QUEST-II camera on the Palomar Oschin 48-inch telescope, operated by the Palomar-QUEST consortium. An R-band discovery magnitude of 18.3 and J2000.0 coordinates RA 03:16:31.37 DEC 15:27:40.7 are derived from comparison with the USNO-B1.0 catalog. A spectrum (range 320-1000 nm) obtained Aug 08.6 UTC with the SuperNova Integral Field Spectrograph on the University of Hawaii 2.2-meter telescope was used for classification.
