ABSTRACT
This chapter presents a map of Triangulum Australe, Apus, Musca Australis, and Chamaeleon. This map shows the whole of Crux, Musca and Apus, with Chamaeleon and Volans, most of Triangulum Australe and Carina, and sections of Octans, Circinus, Centaurus, Vela and Pictor. The three main stars of Triangulum Australe really do form a triangle; they are Alpha, Beta and Gamma. Apus (formerly Avis Indica, the Bird of Paradise) has no bright stars, but all its leaders are reddish: Alpha, Gamma, Beta, Delta and Zeta - this makes the constellation quite distinctive. Chamaeleon has no star brighter than Alpha. Musca Australis, the Southern Fly, is generally known simply as Musca. The Southern Fly is a compact little constellation; its brightest stars are Alpha and Beta, shown at the bottom left of the photograph.
