HD 135530 is a variable star in the northern constellation of Boötes. With an average apparent magnitude of 6.14,[8] it is very faintly visible to the naked eye under excellent observing conditions.

Although listed only as a suspected variable in the General Catalogue of Variable Stars, observations by the MASCARA team have have shown that its brightness is in fact variable, with a period of about 20 days.[1]
