Abstract
We present CCD R photometry of SW Ursae Majoris - an SU UMa type catac lysmic-variable obtained during its April 1996 superoutburst. The mean value of the superhump period P-sh derived from our observations is 0 .05818(+/-2) days (83.8 min). The analysis of times of superhump maxim a gives clear evidence for the increase of the superhump period with P -sh=8.9x10(-5).
