Abstract

Reliable identifications of supernova remnants in external galaxies are slowl becoming available through the combined use of radio, optical, and x-ray surveys. The host galaxies represent a variety of Hubble types. Although the number of SNF detected in each galaxy is currently small, new telescopes and detectors in all three wavelength regimes should allow us to obtain larger samples in the near future.
