Review text

The authors complete the classification of tilings of the sphere by regular spherical polygons as presented in [\textit{V. A. Zalgaller}, in: Semin. in Mathematics, V.A. Steklov Math. Inst., Leningrad 2, 95 p. (1969; Zbl 0177.24802)].\N\NThe completion consists in the determination of the non-edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by regular spherical polygons of three or more sides.
