At this conference results have been presented on a number of individual galactic supernova remnants, but many others remain unstudied. It therefore seemed worthwhile to present a catalogue of all presently known SNR's in the Galaxy. Objects of which the true nature is not yet well established have, as far as possible, been omitted. Remnants which have been detected at optical wavelengths are marked by an asterisk in Table 1. Data on the optical identifications are from van den Bergh (1978), supplemented by recent results of Zealey, Elliot and Malin (1979), Reich, Kallas and Steube (1979), Downes, Pauls and Salter (1980), van den Bergh (1981) and Reich and Braunsfurth (1981). Also marked in the table are supernova remnants that have been detected in x-rays. These x-ray identifications are from miscellaneous sources.
