Abstract. LSS3184 is a hydrogen-deficient, early B-type giant, recently found to pulsate with a period of 2.5 hours. Its photospheric parameters have been derived from optical high-resolution spectra by the method of fine analysis. The principal results are T_eff=23300 K, log g=3.35, {n_H}/{n_He}<=0.00015, {n_C}/{n_He}=0.003, {n_N}/{n_He}=0.0005, and {n_O}/{n_He}=0.0003. Hydrogen is extremely deficient. The effective temperature is consistent with broad-band visual and ultraviolet spectrophotometry and an extinction E(B-V) ~ 0.27. Its previous evolution is reflected in the chemistry of the atmosphere, which contains enriched nitrogen from CNO-cycle hydrogen burning, and carbon from 3-alpha helium burning. Thus LSS3184 is a true extreme helium star with a composition similar to BD-9 4395.
With T_eff, log g, and pulsation properties very similar to the C-poor and N-rich helium star V652Her, evolutionary mechanisms which can result in very different surface compositions for the two stars must be examined.
