NOTE

1.  The position of the Georganou region is given in Keller et al. [2014] pg. 122 as 36° 21.960′ N, 25° 47.700′ E (in this atlas at F7258) and at an elevation of ~260 m asl. Soterakopoulos [2004] pg. 72, no. 5 requires that it be at the head of a ravine. The position given here satisfies all three requirements but the reader will wish to be cautious in adopting this somewhat notional positioning.
