Abstract: By means of singularisations and insertions in Nakada's alpha-expansions, which involves the removal of partial quotients 1 while introducing partial quotients with a minus sign, the natural extension of Nakada's continued fraction map T_alpha is given for (sqrt{10}-2)/3leqalpha<1. From our construction it follows that Omega_alpha, the domain of the natural extension of T_alpha, is metrically isomorphic to Omega_g for alpha in [g^2,g), where g is the small golden mean. Finally, although Omega_alpha proves to be very intricate and unmanageable for alpha in [g^2, (sqrt{10}-2)/3), the alpha-Legendre constant L(alpha) on this interval is explicitly given.
