Abstract
The Second Fermi LAT source catalog (Nolan et al. 2012) includes as many as 1,873 sources, but initial attempts to identify counterparts at other wavelengths resulted in 575 sources remaining unidentified. The 2FGL catalog is based on the first 24 months of LAT observation since its launch in 2008, but the LAT has now accumulated more than 5 years of high-energy gamma-ray data almost flawlessly, presenting the possibility of finding new sources which were too faint to be detected in the first two years of data or showed flaring activity after the catalog was created. In this paper we report on two new gamma-ray sources serendipitously discovered in the constellation Leo and discuss possible counterparts based on radio observations.
