L. Tomasella, S. Benetti, E. Cappellaro, P. Ochner, A. Pastorello, M. Turatto, and S. Valenti, Osservatorio Astronomico di Padova, Istituto Nazionale di Astrofisica, report that a spectrogram of PSN J19213020+6108101 = 2012bv, obtained on Apr. 25.11 UT with the Asiago 1.82-m Copernico Telescope (+ AFOSC; range 340-820 nm; resolution 2.4 nm), indicates that this is a type-II supernova. Cross-correlation with a library of supernova spectra via the GELATO code (Harutyuyan et al. 2008, A.Ap. 488, 383), shows that, assuming a redshift of z = 0.0073 for the host galaxy (average of different estimates listed in the NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database), 2012bv is similar to SN 2007od at ten days after explosion (Inserra et al. 2011, MNRAS 417, 261).
