LA1 Singh, the one between Bzi and Ak-su by myself, and the two further sooth by surveyors Afriz-gnl and AInhammad Yak Glt, respectively. The plot,ting of the sheet is based on the positions adopted for Ak-st1 and Knch% in Sheets No. 7, 17 and on that for the junc- t,ion of the ilk-su and Ytirkand rivers. For the latitude of the last the valne observed by Dr. Iiedin, viz. 4.0' 38' 47", was used, while the longitt~de adopted is the mean between the values obtained by interpolation hetween Kishgar and Korla and between Kilotan and Ak-su. Latitude observations taken by Dr. Hedin were utilized for a number of points on the Tirim river. For AIuhammad Yakab's traverse along this river, a check on longitude was afforded also by tlre position of Peres liolnm and tho Kara-kiislr rive].. Corrections. D. 1.

Similarly the adopted position of l'engri-lihin (see Notes on Sheet No. I I) was used for the adjustn~ent of t,he route leading from Ak-su to the Muz-art pass. In tllc northern portion of' the s11et.t lies the s~~bordinate basin of Bai ( C, D. 1 ), enclosed between tile foot.hills of tlre n~ain ll'ien-shan and a much-eroded outer range. The MIIZ-art ri~er and some of its tributaries snpply irrigation to considerable t.racts in t,l~is basin. The same is the ease with part, of the submontane area betaween Ali-sn ant1 Jam (A. 2) nrhich receives water from the sno\vy main range. Tl~e large volume of the -4k-so river renders irrigation possi1)le along both its banks for a considerable distance. Between the fo~t of the above IIICIItioned outer range and the jungle helt accompanying the Tilrini stretches an area of scrubby desert. The existence of certain
