Jiaming Liao(Hefei,Anhui,China),Jiangao Ruan(Fangchenggang,Guangxi,China) and Xing Gao (Urumqi,Xinjiang,China), report the discovery of a possible supernova (mag approximately 17.6) on one 40-s survey image (limiting mag about 19.0) taken by Xing Gao in Xingming Observation Sky Survey(C42) around Sept.11.87181 UT. using an unfiltered CCD ( + Celestron C14 Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope D=356-mm @f/6.9 ). The new object approximately located at R.A.=04h 54m 44s.10 Decl.=+69 43 07.5(equinox 2000.0). Which is about 67.1″ east and 13.8″ north of the center of the PGC 16301. Nothing is visible at this position on archival images taken on Aug.20(limiting mag 19.0), or on the DSS(POSS-II N) from Oct.01,1996(limiting mag about 19.7).
