Parallaxes are from Hipparcos except for U~Ori which was derived from a period--luminosity relation (\cite{whitelock2000b}). $T_{{\rm PE}}$ is the pseudo-effective temperature defined in this paper and determined from the observed luminosity~$L_\star$ and our diameter measurements~$R_{*}$.\label{tab:pulsation}}	         \begin{tabular}{lccccc}
