SN 2010al reaches an absolute magnitude at peak of M_R_=-18.86+/-0.21. Its early light curve shows similarities with normal SNe Ib, with a rise to maximum slower than most SNe Ibn. The spectra are dominated by a blue continuum at early stages, with narrow P-Cygni HeI lines indicating the presence of a slow-moving, He-rich circumstellar medium. At later epochs, the spectra well match those of the prototypical SN Ibn 2006jc, although the broader lines suggest that a significant amount of He was still present in the stellar envelope at the time of the explosion. SN 2011hw is somewhat different. It was discovered after the first maximum, but the light curve shows a double peak. The absolute magnitude at discovery is similar to that of the second peak (M_R_=-18.59+/-0.25), and slightly fainter than the average of SNe Ibn. Though the spectra of SN 2011hw are similar to those of SN 2006jc, coronal lines and narrow Balmer lines are clearly detected. This indicates substantial interaction of the SN ejecta with He-rich, but not H-free, circumstellar material. The spectra of SN 2011hw suggest that it is a transitional SN Ibn/IIn event similar to SN 2005la. While for SN 2010al the spectrophotometric evolution favours a H-deprived Wolf-Rayet progenitor (of WN-type), we agree with the conclusion of Smith et al. that the precursor of SN 2011hw was likely in transition from a luminous blue variable to an early Wolf-Rayet (Ofpe/WN_9_) stage. Description: We started our optical and near-infrared (NIR) observational campaigns soon after the classification announcements of the two SNe, using the instruments available to our collaboration (see Tables A3 and A4). Additional photometry with small-size telescopes was kindly provided by amateur astronomers. Both SNe 2010al and 2011hw were visible for only 60-70 d after their discoveries, then they disappeared behind the Sun. We tried to recover SN 2010al at very late phases, but it was only visible in NIR observations obtained with the 8.4-m Large Binocular Telescope (Mt. Graham, Arizona; USA) equipped with Lucifer. Additional space observations of SNe 2010al and 2011hw in the ultra-violet (UV) and optical bands were obtained with the Swift satellite and its Ultraviolet/Optical Telescope (UVOT). These data were useful to constrain the large energy contribution of the UV domain in the early phases of the evolution of the two SNe.

These have been obtained by computing zero-points using the R-band magnitudes of the stellar sequence in the SN field, and assuming negligible colour correction; D = Indicates luminance filter measurements reported to V-band magnitudes. Note (2): The errors are obtained by combining in quadrature the errors in the photometric calibration and instrumental PSF measurement errors. Note (3): Standard Johnson-Cousins V- and R-band magnitudes from amateur astronomers have been obtained by computing instrumental zero-points using the V and R magnitudes of the local sequence stars reported in Table A1, and adopting no colour correction.
