We obtained X–ray (ROSAT, BeppoSAX and ASCA) and optical observations of a sample of newly discovered X–ray pulsars. We here report on the discovery of the likely optical counterpart of five of them in the Small Magellanic Cloud: 1SAXJ0103–7209, XTEJ0055–724, RXJ0052–7319, XTEJ0111–7317 and 2E0050–7247.
