We have observed the field covering the error circle of
GRB081118(GCN 8524, Hoversten et al.)
with the unfiltered CCD camera on the 30-cm telescope at
University of Miyazaki.
The observation was started 14:57:54 UT, 38.1 min
after the Swift-BAT trigger time.
We have compared our data of 30 sec exposures
with the USNO-A2.0 catalog.there is no new source
at the reported position.
