  The source HD172555 is a young A7V star surrounded by a debris disk with a
gaseous component. Here, we present the detection of variable absorption
features detected simultaneously in the Ca II K and H doublet lines (at 3,933
and 3,968 Angstrom). We identified the presence of these absorption signatures
at four different epochs in the 129 HARPS high-resolution spectra gathered
between 2004 and 2011. These transient absorption features are most likely due
to Falling Evaporating Bodies (FEBs, or exocomets) that produce absorbing gas
observed transiting in front of the central star. We also detect a stable Ca II
absorption component at the star's radial velocity. With no corresponding
detection in the Na I line, the resulting very low upper limit for the NaI/CaII
ratio suggests that this absorption is due to circumstellar gas.
