X-ray and optical data reveal a new BL Lac object (EXO 055625-3838.6) within the error box of H0557-385. The long-term hard X-ray light curve of H0557-385 is found to vary by factor of not less than 10. It is noted that the reclassification as BL Lacs of even a very small number of the HEAO1 survey sources would suggest that the previous estimate of the space density of these objects at fluxes of greater than 10 to the -11th erg/sq cm per s should be substantially increased.
