		| Abstract: | 
		We present optical observations of the fields of two X-ray sources located near the center of the shell-like supernova remnant G266.2-1.2. No objects brighter than R ~ 22.5 and B ~ 23 are present within the small Chandra error region of AX J0851.9-4617.4, besides a R ~ 17 star which has already been excluded as a possible counterpart. A bright diffuse H-alpha nebula is present close to the position of the candidate neutron star. |
