On the 1992 STEPHI IV campaign, the multi-periodic δ Scuti stars BN Cnc and BU Cnc of the Praesepe cluster were monitored during a three-week, three-continental run (Belmonte et al. 1994). Five and six frequency peaks, respectively, were recorded as a result of the campaign. In a subsequent paper (Pérez Hernández et al. 1995, hereafter Paper I), an attempt to identify these frequency peaks as pulsation modes was done. An important point is that both stars belong to the same cluster and, hence, more severe constraints than for isolated stars can be imposed. Recently, Breger et al. (1994) have reported results on EP Cnc, another δ Scuti in Praesepe. This star is also multi-periodic, showing three frequency peaks above the noise level. In the present work we extend our analysis to this star.
