P. Wils (Vereniging Voor Sterrenkunde, Belgium), J. Greaves
(Northamptonshire, UK), A.J. Drake (California Institute of Technology), M. Catelan
(Pont. Universidad Catolica, Chile) and the CRTS collaboration
report the discovery of a possible FU-Ori-type eruption (see Hartmann and
Kenyon 1996, ARAA 34, 207).  The object CSS091110:060919-064155 located at
R.A. = 06h09m19.32s, Decl. = -06o41'55.4" (equinox 2000.0) and coincident
with the infrared source IRAS 06068-0641, was detected by the Catalina
Real-time Transient Survey (CRTS) on 10 November 2009.  It has been
continuously brightening from at least early 2005 (when it was mag 14.8 on
unfiltered CCD images) to the present mag 12.6, and may possibly brighten
further.  On recent images a faint cometary reflection nebula is visible
to the East.  A spectrum (range 350-900nm) taken with the SMARTS
1.5m-telescope on Cerro Tololo on 17 November shows H$\alpha$ in emission,
all other Balmer lines and HeI (at 501.5nm) in absorption, and a very
strong Ca II infrared triplet in emission, confirming it to be a young
stellar object.  The object lies inside a dark nebula to the South of the
Mon R2 association, and is likely related with it.

In addition, also inside this dark nebula, a second object at R.A. =
06h09m13.70s, Decl. = -06o43'55.6", coincident with IRAS 06068-0643, has
been varying between mag 15 and 20 over the past few years, reminiscent of
UX-Ori-type objects with very deep fades.  Also this second object
supports a variable cometary reflection nebula, extending to the North.
The spectrum of this object also shows H$\alpha$ and the strong Ca II
infrared triplet in emission.
