Analysis of new and already published photometric observations shows that the Wolf-Rayet star WR 16 = HD 86161 is not a binary system (WR + compact, P = 5.365 d) as claimed by Moffat and Niemela (1982). Instead it is shown that the simultaneous presence of two periodicities (about 1.3 and 2.5 days) is necessary to account for the observed variations during at least one observing run. The variability of the B9p star HD 86199, previously used as a comparison for a photometric study of WR 16, is established.
