While reviewing and systematizing the properties of the class of supernova remnants resembling the Crab Nebula it has been found that supernova remnants can be split into three morphological groups – Class S (shells), Class P (plerions), and Class C (combinations) – where the Class C objects appear to represent a new and especially interesting classification. In this overview, the identifying properties of all three classes are defined. Because the large Class S has been studied in detail many times previously, it is not discussed further here. For the smaller Classes P and C, the individual members and suspected members are presented and their properties reviewed. Finally, an origin and evolution for each class is suggested.
