IT has been suggested to us that it would be useful to extend the list of pulsar distances which two of us computed earlier1,2 to include those pulsars which have been discovered since then. In Table VII of ref. 2 we listed distances of thirty-six pulsars. We now list the results for another eighteen, six of which were mentioned previously2 in a note added in proof. The results are given in Table 1. Because a plot of pulsar distribution against height z above the galactic plane shows a sharp distinction between those objects for which a precise distance was found and those for which we use equation 44 of ref. 2, we have adopted l=200 |sin b|-1 pc as a lower bound distance estimate for pulsars with n0(∞)≳0.05 cm-3 whose line of sight does not intersect an HII region. For the Jodrell pulsars we have used the data of Davies, Large and Pickwick3,4.
