never been mentioned by HUC and GABET. Lóczy has theoretically entered on his
map a range joining the Western Kwen-lun with the Tang-la, and diagonally crossing
Tibet from W. N. W. to E. S. E. The Kara-korum is shown as a short range, hardly
reaching the Ike-Namur-nor of the Chinese maps. Farther south we recognize the
long ranges at the sides of NAIN-SING'S route. In the region which I explored on
my journey 1906—08 Lóczy has only one range, passing along the southern shore
of Dangra-yum-tso and called by him, sixteen years before I returned home, Trans-
Himâlaya, a name which he, obviously, has got from GODWIN-AUSTEN and other
British officers and geographers.¹ He has another range following along the northern
bank of the Tsang-po. On his map the Kara-korum has no connection whatever
with the Transhimalaya.
