This paper presents an empirical analysis of the geometry of the conal emission region for a total population of some 150 pulsars for which an adequate body of observations now exists. It continues the analysis begun in a previous paper that explored the geometry of the core emission region and provided a means of estimating the angle α between the rotation and magnetic axes of pulsars with core components. The various pulsars are thus divided into groups according to their morphological classification, and those species that have core components are treated first. Special consideration is given to the five-component (M) class and to those other, entirely conal species which are closely related to it, the conal triple (cT) and the conal quadruple (cQ)
