Abstract

This paper presents a visual light curve, an O-C diagram (from 1900 to the present), and estimated color indexes for the BZ Monocerotis system. The period and epoch are 3d.451804 and J.D. 2,443,192.663 respectively. BZ Mon is most likely composed of B4V and G5III stars, and is near the Mon OB2 association.
