Variables listed as δ Scuti-type pulsators in the R00 catalogue (Rodriguez et al., 2000) with periods longer than 0.d25 are examined on a star-by-star basis, in order to discriminate their true nature (δ Scuti, RR Lyr or γ Dor-type). From this study, it seems that three stars (DH Peg, UY Cam and YZ Cap) are RR Lyr pulsators rather than δ Scuti variables. Moreover, two variables (AD Ari and DE Oct) seem to be γ Dor variables with the shortest periods known to date (0.d2699 and 0.d2778, respectively).
