DM Vir is a detached eclipsing binary system consisting of two almost identical F6-7 IV-V components. Its period is shown to be about 4.6694 d. Light curves in UBV are analyzed by the Wood method. The eclipses are complete and nearly central. The primary eclipse is an occultation and the duration of the complete phase of the eclipses is about 10 minutes. The absolute dimensions of the components are derived and these are shown to be similar to those of the subgiant Procyon. Although DM Vir cannot be regarded as a RS CVn system at present, it is seen as a precursor of this type of star.
