The diameter of 375 Ursula from its occultation of AG + 39 deg 303A value of 216 + or - 10 km for the mean diameter of Ursula is given, based on photometric measurements and observations of the occultation of AG + 39 deg 303, a K-type star of visual magnitude 8.8, by 375 Ursula on November 15, 1982. From the occultation diameter and the absolute visual magnitudes presented, the visual geometric albedo of Ursula is determined to be 0.032, similar to the value typical of C-type asteroids.
