Scientific paper

We present an analysis of 555 high-dispersion echelle spectra of 19 Mon obtained from two sites as well as 115 Strömgren uvby observations. We show that three periodicities are present at 5.22994, 0.17019 and 4.88956cycled-1. The first periodicity has by far the largest amplitude. Photometric amplitude ratios and phase differences indicate an l=2 mode, while the line profile variations unequivocally point to l=2,m=-2. Because of the low amplitudes of the other two modes, very little can be said concerning them. Although 19 Mon was originally selected on the basis of its classification as a marginal Be star, the Be nature of the star is not supported by our observations.
