N. Morrell, Las Campanas Observatory, on behalf of the Carnegie Supernova Project, reports that an optical spectrogram (range 380-920 nm) of PSN J01001437-3048309 = SN 2012eq was obtained on Sept. 8.38 UT with the du Pont telescope (+ WFCCD). Inspection of the data showed that 2012eq is a type-Ia supernova at several days past maximum brightness. Cross-correlation with a library of supernova spectra using the Supernova Identification tool (SNID; Blondin and Tonry 2007, Ap.J. 666, 1024) provides excellent matches with a number of type-Ia events between 5 and 12 days after maximum light, the best comparison being 1992A at 8 days past maximum. SNID also suggests for 2012eq a redshift of 0.0323, in coincidence with the recession velocity of 9661 km/s given in NED for ESO 412-1 (Jones et al. 2009, "The 6dF Galaxy Survey Data Release 3").
