Stellar atmospheric parameters of 525 variables were determined, while spectral types were obtained for all samples. In the paper, those spectroscopic data are catalogued. We detect a group of 131 unusual and cool variable stars (UCVs) that are distinguished from the normal δ Scuti stars (NDSTs). On the H-R diagram and the logg-T diagram, the UCVs are far beyond the red edge of pulsational instability trip. Their effective temperatures are lower than 6700K with periods in the range from 0.09 to 0.22d. NDSTs have metallicity close to that of the Sun as expected, while UCVs are slightly metal poor than NDSTs. The two peaks on the distributions of the period and stellar atmospheric parameters are all caused by the existence of UCVs. When those UCVs are excluded, it is discovered that the effective temperature, the gravitational acceleration, and the metallicity all are correlated with the pulsating period for NDSTs and their physical properties and evolutionary states are discussed. Detection of those UCVs indicates that about 25 per cent of the known δ Scuti stars may be misclassified. However, if some of them are confirmed to be pulsating stars, they will be a new-type pulsator and their investigations will shed light on theoretical instability domains and on the theories of interacting between the pulsation and the convection of solar-type stars. Meanwhile, 88 δ Scuti stars are detected to be the candidates of binary or multiple systems. Description: Among 3689 delta Scuti variables listed in VSX catalogue, 766 of them were observed in LAMOST spectral survey from 2011 October 24 to 2017 June 16. We catalogue those delta Scuti stars and their spectral types are given. Stellar atmospheric parameters for 525 ones are presented.
