The stars HD 224638 and HD 224945 belong to the new class of F0 V spectral type stars which show an unusual kind of variability for that region of the HR diagram (Mantegazza et al. 1993).

The variability of these two stars has been discovered and studied by Mantegazza, Poretti & Zerbi (1994). They show small amplitude light variations with characteristic time scales of the order of one day. The light curves are not periodic and it is difficult to satisfactorily fit them even with several periodic terms.

In order to explain our 1991 B colour observations we tentatively suggested that in both stars two close periodic terms were present with a characteristic frequency of about 0.8 c/d, and that these terms had a double wave shape for HD 224638 and a triple wave one for HD 224945.
