Abstract
The W Ursae Majoris-type eclipsing binary BV 419 was studied photoelectrically in yellow and blue light at the newly founded Mount John University Observatory on the South Island of New Zealand. The period is found to be Od.629298O, which is in agreement with the original estimate made by Strohmeier, but differs from that given by and . The eclipses of BV 419 are complete, the primary minimum being a transit. The ratio of the radii k is 0.54. Physically, BV 419 closely resembles several other W Ursae Majoris systems such as RZ Tauri, DK Cygni, and AK Herculis.
