Abstract
BV optical flares of AR Lacertae, found in 1979 observations, are presented and their features are discussed. The effect of wave migration and the significance levels of flares originating around both eclipses have been estimated. Flare features suggest that both the components of AR Lac have spotted regions and show activity. The varying amplitudes of flares indicate varying degrees of activity. These results are well supported by observations in other wavelength regions.
