A former Catholic priest extradited from Indonesia has admitted to more child sex offences, at a District Court hearing in Adelaide.

Charles Alfred Barnett, 68, had already pleaded guilty to three counts of indecent assault on teenage boys between 1977 and 1982 in Crystal Brook and Port Pirie.

Now he has pleaded guilty to another two charges of unlawful sexual intercourse.

His lawyer has asked for time to get a psychological report before making submissions on Barnett's penalty.

The case has been listed for the end of June.

Last year Barnett became the first person extradited to Australia from Indonesia under a treaty between the two countries.

He also spent a year in an Indonesian jail before the extradition.
