We provide a local classification of selfdual Einstein riemannian four-manifolds admitting a positively oriented hermitian structure and characterize those which carry a hyperhermitian, non-hyperkähler structure compatible with the negative orientation. We show that selfdual Einstein 4-manifolds obtained as quaternionic quotients of and are hermitian.
