GRO J1719-24 (GRS 1716-249, V2293 Oph, X-Ray Nova Ophiuchi 1993) is believed to be a low-mass X-ray binary.[2] Its name derives from an X-ray transient, detected in 1993.[3] The system consists of a black hole candidate and a low mass companion, estimated to be a main sequence star of the spectral type K0-5 V.[4]

The rotation period is uncertain, estimated at 14.7h.[1] The light curve possibly exhibits some faster fluctuations as well, which are hypothesized to be produced by blobs of matter in the accretion disk.[1]
