Nugent (LBL Berkeley)\non behalf of PESSTO.\n\nFollowing the LSQ discovery (Rabinowitz et al, GCN 18347) of candidates in the G184098 southern\nerror box,  PESSTO, the Public ESO Spectroscopic Survey for Transient Objects (see Smartt et al. 2015, A&A, 579, 40 http://www.pessto.org), reports the following classifications.   All observations were performed on the ESO New Technology Telescope at La Silla on the night of 2015-09-22, using EFOSC2 and Grism 13 (3985-9315A, 18A resolution). Classifications were done with SNID (Blondin & Tonry, 2007, ApJ, 666, 1024). Classification spectra can be obtained from http://www.pessto.org (via WISeREP).\n\nName      | RA (J2000)  | Dec (J2000)  | Disc.
