We have identified the optical counterpart of the EUV transient source RE J1255 + 266 with an ∼ 18 mag blue star which has an unusual optical spectrum showing a blue continuum and broad Balmer absorption lines characteristic of a DA white dwarf, together with intense narrow H Balmer and He 1 lines in emission. Subsequent optical spectroscopy and photometry, together with near-IR photometry, demons...
