H109-alpha and H110-alpha recombination-line emission has been searched for in the directions of five pulsars. In one of these directions, towards PSR 1641-45, a line apparently originating in the diffuse interstellar medium was detected. Based on the pulsar dispersion measures, a lower limit of 130 K is put on the electron temperature in the line-emitting regions, while an upper limit of about 3300 K is derived from the observed continuum brightness temperature. The clumping factor for the electrons in the line-emitting region is estimated to be about 20.
