We consider the magnetic NLS equation

\[
\begin{eqnarray} (-{\varepsilon \rmi}\nabla+A(x)) ^{2}u+V(x)u=\vert u\vert ^{p-2}u,\tqs x\in\mathbb{R}^{N}, \end{eqnarray}
\]

where N ≥ 3, 2 < p < 2* := 2N/(N − 2), A:\mathbb{R}^{N}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^{N} is a magnetic potential and V:\mathbb{R}^{N}\rightarrow \mathbb{R} is a bounded electric potential. We consider a group G of orthogonal transformations of \mathbb{R}^{N} , and we assume that A(gx) = gA(x) and V(gx) = V(x) for any g in G, x\in\mathbb{R}^{N} . Given a group homomorphism \tau:G\rightarrow\mathbb{S}^{1} into the unit complex numbers, we show the existence of semiclassical solutions u_{\varepsilon}:\mathbb{R}^{N}\rightarrow\mathbb{C} to problem (0.1), which satisfy

\[
\begin{equation*} u_{\varepsilon}(gx)=\tau(g)u_{\varepsilon}(x) \end{equation*}
\]

for all g in G, x\in\mathbb{R}^{N} . Moreover, we show that there is a combined effect of the symmetries and the electric potential V on the number of solutions of this type.
