We obtained I-band images of the RXTE and Integral error fields of J1726-47 (ATels #623 and #624) using the SMARTS 1.3m telescope and ANDICAM instrument on Oct 10.99172 and Oct 11.99156 UT. Using the refined coordinates obtained by the Swift XRT telescope (ATels #625 and #626) we find a new object not present in the DSS. The I-band magnitude of the new source was 16.97 +/- 0.11 in the Oct 10 data, calibrated by Landolt standards taken on that night, where the error is dominated by the uncertainty in the conversion to standard magnitudes.
