GSC 2985-01044 is a δ Scuti star with a period of 0.0933584 days and a V-magnitude range of 11.85-12.05; its light curve is slightly variable. The location, space motion, and other properties of this star indicate that it is a higher amplitude δ Scuti star (or ``dwarf Cepheid'') that is a member of the old disk population. The problem of determining the local space densities of the various populations of the higher amplitude δ Scuti stars is discussed.
