Abstract
Stromgren by photometry of the detached A-type eclipsing binary EG Ser pentis was obtained. Combined with the radial velocity curves in Poppe r [PASP, 98, 1312 (1986)], it was used to determine anew the system's parameters using the Wilson-Devinney code. The age of the system is de rived from a comparison with the Bertelli et al. [A&AS, 85, 845 (1990) ] isochrones. Within the accuracy limits, the results are in accordanc e with expectations.
