We report follow-up photometry of the Nova M31 2018-10c (AT2018hld, ATLAS18xcg, TCP J00420310+4102331) from CCD images taken from 2018 Oct 20.9969 to 21.0082 UT with the CAMELOT camera of the IAC80 telescope at Teide Observatory in Tenerife. This nova was discovered on 2018/10/15.457 UT by Koichi Nishiyama and Fujio Kabashima and reported to CBAT TOCP. It was classified as a Nova in M31 by Robin Leadbeater (AT2018hld TNS) and as a member of the Fe II spectroscopic class by S. C. Williams, M. J. Darnley and M. W. Healy (ATel #12138).

We report here the IAC80 photometry in the Sloan g, r, and i filters, calibrated using Pan-STARRS1:

r = 17.32 +/- 0.03, exposure time = 300 seconds

g = 17.47 +/- 0.03, exposure time = 300 seconds

i = 17.30 +/- 0.03, exposure time = 300 seconds

Based on observations made with the IAC80 telescope operated by the Instituto de Astrofisica de Canarias on the island of Tenerife in the Observatorio del Teide.

We thank David Bishop for his wonderful compilation of extragalactic novae and supernovae.
