Abstract
In the last decade stars showing variability of unclear origin have been detected among early F-type stars mainly as secondary results in the context of observational programmes devoted to the study of δ-Scuti and CP stars.For this reason only a small number of these objects has been thoroughly studied: their positions in HR diagram is shown in fig.l.Figure 1: HR diagram of the observed stars.The stars in NGC 2516 have been singled out in a survey work by Antonello and Mantegazza (1986), HD 164615 has been studied by Abt et al.(1983), the variability in 9 Aur has been discovered by Krischinas et al.(1990,1991) and HD 23375 in Pleiades has been pointed out by Breger (1972). The solid line in Fig. 1 is the ZAMS and the dashed lines are the borders of the i-Scuti stars instability strip.
