In this paper, simultaneous optical and ultraviolet observations of spectral variability of the WN5 star HD 50896 are presented. Night-to-night and shorter timescale changes were found in the shape and intensity of most emission lines and P Cygni profiles in both wavelength ranges but there is no clear link between the ultraviolet and optical variability. There are some indications that the ultraviolet variations occur in phase with the well-known 3.766-day period often associated with this star.
