The authors present a geometrical characterization of hyperelastic bodies. The characterization is an extension of previously developed concepts of \textit{W. Noll} [Arch. Rotation. Mech. Anal. 27, 1-32 (1967; Zbl 0168.457)] and \textit{C. C. Wang} [ibid. 27, 33-94 (1967; Zbl 0187.488)]. The characterization is applicable with both uniform and nonuniform bodies. The paper is theoretical. As such it will probably be of greatest interest to theoreticians working in elastic theory.
