Of the ranges discovered by the Pundits A—K— and NAIN SING, Lóczy has
the following passage:

Auf der von Atkinson entworfenen Karte über die Reisen A—K—'s sieht
man zwischen dem Tang-la-Rücken und dem Nak-tschu-kha-Flusse w-lich vom Wege
nach Lassa eine von Schneegipfeln gekrönte Kette, von welcher die nach O. laufenden
Flüsse ihren Ursprung nehmen. Die erwähnte Karte lässt uns auch hier mit dem
Nin-tschen-tang-la parallel verlaufende Ketten vermuthen. — Die Karte Nain-Sing's
stellt in der Mitte der tibetanischen Hochebene zwischen Lassa und Rudok in der
Gegend des Ombo, sowie der Dangra-jum genannten heiligen Seen ähnlich verlaufende
Gebirgsketten dar, die sich mit den parallelen Ketten des Himalaya kreuzen.

All the journeys undertaken across Tibet since Lóczy published his work have
proved that his conclusions regarding the parallelism were quite correct.¹ In Vol. I, p. 621
of the great work of Count SZÉCHENYI'S journey, Lóczy has a most interesting sketch-
map of the mountain systems of Tibet (Pl. LXVII). The volume was published in
1893, sixteen years after Richthofen's China, Vol. I.² Comparing these two maps
with each other one becomes aware of the enormous importance of PRSHEVALSKIY'S
discoveries on his journey in 1877 to Lop-nor and Altin-tagh. On Richthofen's map
the hydrography of Eastern Turkestan still depends upon Chinese maps, and Lop-nor
is placed 1° north of the actual lake basin. South of the old lake basin there is 2½° of
sand desert before one reaches the northern-most ranges belonging to the Kwen-
lun. This system is shown by Richthofen as a great number of ranges stretching
W. N. W.—E. S. E. From south to north they become shorter, and their western
ends run out into the desert, like side-scenes. Lóczy, on the other hand, had later
discoveries at his disposal, principally PRSHEVALSKIY'S journey to Altin-tagh, which
totally changed the appearance of the interior of Asia. Therefore Lóczy has cut off
the western part of Richthofen's Kwen-lun System, and placed the W. S. W.—E. N. E.
stretching ranges of the Altin-tagh System in front of Richthofen's Western Kwen-
lun. The eastern parts of the Kwen-lun are, in general, the same on both maps.

Richthofen has made his Sinian System begin already at about 90° East of
Greenwich, stretching S. W.—N. E. The Tang-la belongs to this system, as we also
remember from SAUNDERS' maps. On Lóczy's map the Sinian System does not be-
gin until 102° East of Greenwich and of Richthofen's »Sinische Ketten», only one,
Nien-chen-tang-la, is left. The rest of the space has been filled with Lóczy's »Hinter-
Indische Ketten». According to PRSHEVALSKIY'S and Pundit A— K—'s discoveries,
Lóczy was able to correct the situation of the Tang-la, the stretching of which had
