My telescopic observation of March 6-7, 1995, (lambda=346 degrees) shows the presence of a strong short-duration shower of slow meteors radiating from alpha=154.7 degrees and delta=+14.7 degrees, with apparent full-width half-maximum radiant size of approximately 2.2 degrees. Fifteen of 41 meteors seenn during lambda=346.00 to 346.19 degrees appeared to be members of this shower. Additional observations of the nights before and after only showed minimal evidence for this shower being active on the previous night. An archive search back to 1983 yielded few data for this solar longitude and could neither confirm nor deny the existence of this shower. A tentative shower identification is the kappa-Leonids of Terentjeva.
