Data are presented for a series of repeated bursts in the flaring X-ray pulsar FXP 0520-66, from March 5-6 and April 4 and 24, 1979, which reveal several features in common with the March 5, 1979 gamma-ray burst. New information on short bursts detected by Venera 11 and 12 is also given. A comparison of the data lends support to the suggestion that FXP 0520-66 and the short burst sources are similar in nature. FXP 0520-66 is unique in being the closest of transient sources thus far detected to the sun, by a factor of 10-20.
