Abstract
We report optical spectroscopic identification of INTEGRAL source IGR J13168-7157 detected in the INTEGRAL all-sky survey (Krivonos et al. 2010, submitted; working version of the catalog can be found at http://hea.iki.rssi.ru/integral/catalog ). Position of the only bright X-ray source detected by pointed SWIFT/XRT observations in error box of INTEGRAL: R.A.=13:16:54.30, Dec.=-71:55:23.7 (J2000, positional uncertainty ~5 arcsec) coincides with that of previously detected ROSAT source 1RXS J131651.8-715537.
