  While polishing my data on Sonneberg variables, just a few days ago
I stumbled on also somewhat peculiar BS Cep. On SIMBAD it is a dwarf
nova. At first sight the DSS image looked similar to BZ Cam.
But BS Cep has also a remarkable coincident IRAS source.
  BS Cep is discussed in:
>   1992A&AS...93..419B
>Spectroscopy of poorly known northern dwarf novae. Part II. 
>     BRUCH A., SCHIMPKE T. 

  and reclassified as a Herbig emission star (HES).
This class is still obscure to me. Other representatives?
Well, perhaps TmzV631 and BS Cep are related!
