    In this paper a class of tilings of the sphere by so-called well-centered spherical quadrangles and spherical triangles, satisfying the so-called angle-folding relation, is classified. This completes the classification that was initiated by the authors in [Beitr. Algebra Geom. 45, 447--461 (2004; Zbl 1084.52011)]. These tilings are related to the theory of isometric foldings of Riemannian manifolds [\textit{S. A. Robertson}, Proc. Royal Soc. Edinb. Sect. A 79, 275--284 (1977; Zbl 0418.53016)].
