PESSTO, the Public ESO Spectroscopic Survey for Transient Objects (see
Smartt et al., arXiv:1411.0299 http://www.pessto.org ), reports the
following supernova classifications. Targets were supplied by by DECam (Forster et al., ATel #5949). All observations were performed on the ESO New Technology Telescope at La Silla on 2015-02-25, using EFOSC2 and Grism 13
(3985-9315A, 18A resolution). Classifications were done with SNID (Blondin
& Tonry, 2007, ApJ, 666, 1024) and GELATO (Harutyunyan et al., 2008, A&A,
488, 383). Classification spectra can be obtained from http://www.pessto.org (via WISeREP).
