\caption{Characteristic parameters for three of the four largest photometric
flares observed on V410~Tau in November 2001. They were
detected with the Johnson {\it UBV} filters. The flare amplitudes,
luminosities and energies refer to the maximum emission.
The quiescent luminosity refers to the average
luminosity just before the flare and was very similar for all three
flares.}
