The authors present optical spectrophotometric observations of the cataclysmic system HL CMa during rise, maximum, and decline phase of an outburst. The spectral evolution is discussed. At maximum light, broad absorption troughs of the Balmer lines are visible. In addition, strong H, He I, He II, and C III-N III (4650 Å) emission is present. Radial velocity measurements reveal an orbital period of 0d.2145±0d.0006. The overall spectral behavior makes HL CMa an unusual cataclysmic variable.
