The WZ Sge-type optical transient M31N2008-11b (K. Itagaki, CBET# 1588) was observed with the Swift X-ray telescope for a total exposure time of 2872 seconds on December 12, 2008 and it was not detected, with a 3 signa upper limit to the Swift XRT PC count rate of 0.0007 cts s(-1), and an upper limit of the unabsorbed flux approximately 3x10(-14) erg/ cm^2/s. If the object had the same optical to X-ray luminosity ratio in outburst as WZ Sge, it should have been detected with an approximate Swift XRT PC count rate of 0.11 cts/s.
