Abstract

We report optical spectroscopy by the OzDES collaboration of supernova candidates discovered by the La Silla-QUEST survey (see Hadjiyska et al., ATel #3812). The spectra (350-900 nm) of these objects were obtained at the Anglo-Australian Telescope with AAOmega-2dF observed by C. Lidman, R. Sharp, and S. A. Uddin. Classifications were performed using Superfit (Howell et al 2002, BAAS, 34, 1256) or SNID (Blondin & Tonry, 2007, ApJ, 666, 1024).
