The object is rather securely identified with the following 2MASS star. 2MASS 173642.178 -234916.19 (2000.0) 9.225 8.067 7.569 Furthermore, there is a NSV star (NSV09220) even closer (but apparently different) to Toni's suspected stellar image. 2MASS 173631.230 -234922.91 (2000.0) 6.863 5.713 4.969 IRAS17334-2347 173328.1 -234736 (1950.0) F12=3.31 F25=1.44 F60=1.00L F100=10.00L VAR=76 LRS=-1 possibly II: variable star with 'young' O-rich circumstellar shell or VII: variable star with more evolved C-rich circumstellar shell or VIa: non-variable star with relatively cold dust at large distance, may be carbon-rich 173631.0 -234925 (2000.0) IRAS17334-2347 3.277 1.408 0.990L 10.390L 76% 173631.0 -234925 (2000.0) SSC17334-2347 3.277 1.408 0.990L 10.390L 173630.9 -234925 (2000.0) NSV09220 ? 15.6 (16.5 R -
