We present preliminary results of a time-series analysis on the He II λ4541Å, Si III λλ4552, 4567, 4575Å and Hβ λ486lÅ lines of the late O-type dwarf, HD 93521. The spectra show line-profile variations (lpv) − ‘bumps’ and ‘dips’ − of amplitude ∼ 1% of the continuum, moving systematically redwards through the photospheric absorption lines. The analysis implies non-radial pulsation (NRP) as the origin for the lpv.
