The chromospherically active single star HD 181943 was previously proposed as either a pre-main-sequence star seen pole-on or a post-main-sequence subgiant that evolved from an Ap star similar to 53 Cam. It also was found to be a variable star with a 385 day period. We have used new spectroscopic and photometric observations to reevaluate the properties and evolutionary state of this unusual system. We conclude that HD 181943 is a single K1 V star that has recently arrived on the ZAMS. Its emission line fluxes are nearly identical to those of HD 82558= LQ Hya, while its log lithium …
