(Stardome Obs.), report on behalf of a larger collaboration, report:

"We have observed the field of the INTEGRAL GRB  091111 (Gotz et al.  
GCNC 10159) using the 0.6m Yock-Allen robotic telescope (BOOTES-3)  
located in Bleinheim, New  Zealand.  The observations were carried out  
between Nov. 12.45208 UT and 12.47379 UT, with a total exposure time  
of 88 min (starting 19.5 h after the burst).  Visual comparison with  
the DSS does not show any new source in our combined unfiltered image  
of the INTEGRAL error box down a limiting magnitude (3 sigma) of R~19.6.

Further observations are ongoing."
