Malesani (DAWN/NBI and Radboud Univ.), Andrea Rossi (INAF/OAS), Olga Kuhn (LBTO) and Felice Cusano (INAF/OAS) report on behalf of a larger collaboration:\n\nWe observed the field of the X-ray transient EP 241026b (Lian et al., GCN 37902) using the Large Binocular Telescope (LBT) located on Mount Graham (AZ, USA), equipped with the MODS instrument. Two images (120 s exposure each) were secured in the r and g bands, beginning at 09:50 UT on October 27, that is 15.6 hr after the EP/WXT trigger.\n\nVisual comparison with archival images from Pan-STARRS reveals no new source within the 2.9'-radius error circle provided by EP/WXT, down to the Pan-STARRS depth of r ~ 23 (AB). We note that our image reaches deeper than that, and fainter counterparts may be retrieved once a better reference image is available.",
