We report the following classifications of optical transients from spectroscopic observations with the Kast spectrograph on the Shane telescope. Targets were supplied by ASASSN and ATLAS. All observations were made on 2018 Jun 19 UT. Classifications were performed with SNID (Blondin & Tonry, 2007, ApJ, 666, 1024).

 
Name        | IAU Name  | RA (J2000)  | Dec (J2000)  |   z   | Type | Phase | Notes
 
ASASSN-18ml | AT2018cmo | 23:14:22.23 | -02:02:01.86 | 0.026 |  Ia  | +15 d | 
ASASSN-18mz | AT2018cqi | 13:57:40.90 | +17:30:28.66 | 0.022 |  II  |       |

Notes: When the redshift is given to 2 decimal places, it is derived from the SN spectrum. Otherwise, the redshift is determined from the host galaxy. (1) Noisy blue continuum
