Extended H2 S(1), v = 1-0 and CO J = 1-0 emission has been detected from the ringlike planetary nebula NGC 6781 which, in many respects, appears to be a low surface brightness counterpart of the Ring nebula, NGC 6720. NGC 6781 is the fourth known member of a group of unusual planetary nebulae that display molecular outflows at velocities that are, apparently, considerably greater than the expansion velocity of the ionized gas. CO emission was also detected from NGC 3132 and NGC 6772, ringlike planetary nebulae with previously known H2 emission.
