An update of the optical identification status of the S4 radio source catalogue is presented. An extensive literature search has been made to gather the types of the optical counterparts, their magnitudes and redshifts. As far as possible, references to other optical catalogues are given for these data, which are often supplemented by more detailed notes on individual sources. Accurate radio positions taken from the literature are given for a large fraction of the sources.
