Abstract
Photometric and spectroscopic observations of the candidate cataclysmic var
iable KUV 03580+0614, independently found from the Hamburg Survey as HS 035
7+0614, reveal this to be a cataclysmic variable with an orbital period of
3.4 hr. Cataclysmic variables with periods in this range are usually nova-l
ike variables belonging to the SW Sex or intermediate polar categories. The
variability, spectroscopic characteristics, and the lack of strong X-rays
indicate a system similar to V795 Her, LS Peg, and AH Men.
