CAL 86: new likely SU UMa-type dwarf nova in the direction of the LMC

   According to Schmidtke et al. (AJ 123, 3210), the X-ray source CAL 86
in the direction of the LMC is confirmed to be a short-period cataclysmic
variable with a short period (0.0660 d).  The object reaches mag 14 at
maximum (amplitude 5 mag).  The light curve presented is typical of
an SU UMa-type superoutburst.  Please monitor this object, and make
time-series photometry when a new outburs is detected!
