We report the discovery of non-radial pulsations with at least 4 periods in the B7V star HD 37151. This result is based on 465 photometric measurements spanning 12 years. In addition, 30 high-resolution spectra were taken in the Mgii λ4481 region: they show a small projected rotational velocity and slight variations of the line profiles. Although this star was once classified B8Vp(Si), all available data show it is a normal B7V star. It is the second coolest SPB star found to date.
