Abstract

In this paper we give a classification of tilings of the sphere by congruent\nquadrilaterals with exactly two equal edges. The tilings are the earth map\ntilings, (p,q)-earth map tilings and their flip modifications, and\nquadrilateral subdivisions of the cube and the triangular prism. We described\nthe ranges of values of the edges and angles for the tile to be geometrically\nrealisable. The symmetry groups of the tilings are also determined.\n
