We report the following classification of ZTF19abtuflm from spectroscopic observations with the Kast spectrograph on the 3 m Shane telescope at Lick Observatory. The observation was made on 2019 September 3 UT. ZTF19abtuflm was flagged by ANTARES (antares.noao.edu) and our customized filter as a promising stellar explosion event in nearby galaxies.

Name | IAU Name | RA (J2000) | Dec (J2000) | z | Type | Phase | Notes
ZTF19abtuflm | AT2019pad | 15:03:44.23 | -03:17:47.09 | 0.0212 | II | -- | (1)
Note: (1) The reported redshift is based on the host galaxy MCG+00-38-019 (from NED). The spectrum shows weak H-alpha emission, similar to a SN IIb at early phases.
