team:

The robotic 60-cm REM telescope located at La Silla (Chile) observed  
automatically the field of the GRB 080310  on March 10 08:40:27 UT
(about 150 seconds after the burst).

We detect the afterglow reported in GCN 7381 and 8383 (Chornock et  
al.) and GCN 7382 (Cummings et al.).

The object has H~14.5 at about 5 min from the burst time.

Further analyses and observations are in progress.
