      From Houtung to Tsitu, about 24 km in length, we have only discovered 7 pothole localities along the main stream and 2 along the tributaries. The distribution of potholes seems rather sparse, but near Juifang and Nuannuan we have found many well developed potholes. []
      Along steeper valley sides (slopes) the distribution usually is irregular, but near Nuannuan, on the north bank of Chilungho, we have found some lines of potholes, quite regularly distributed (see pl. 2). []
      Potholes are well developed on rocky channels, particularly at the upper part of Chilungho, near Nuannuan; at the upper part of Chingmeichi, near Shuangchikou; and at Shihtingchi above Shihting (see pl. 3).
