Regular monitoring of the Small Magellanic Cloud with the RXTE Proportional Counter Array has revealed a periodicity in the pulsed flux from the 18.4s X-ray pulsar XTE J0055-727, initially found to be active in November/December 2003 (Corbet et al. 2003, ATEL #214). The source was then not detected in weekly monitoring of the SMC until seen to be active on May 21. The source was then next detected on: June 23, July 29, September 1, and October 7.
