We report the discovery of an optical nova candidate in M 31 on a 12x60 s stacked R filter CCD image obtained with the robotic 60cm telescope with an E2V CCD (2kx2k) of the Livermore Optical Transient Imaging System (Super-LOTIS, located at Steward Observatory, Kitt Peak, Arizona, USA). The object was first detected on 2008 Feb 07.17 UT with a magnitude of 18.2 and is clearly visible on several of the individual 60 s images.
