    In this paper the author gives short descriptions of the form of the landscape of a hilly district situated west of Yokohama, from the standpoint of so-called spatial distribution. The design of the landscape form, a synthetic concept, consists of complicated distributions and characteristic associations of two groups of its elements. One of the group is the surface form of the earth and the other the forms superimposed on them by activities, natural and cultural. The, former group may properly, be accepted as the distributional area. of the latter.
    A short analysis in this paper of the above mentioned standpoint deals with the following five phenomena:
    (1) The deree of surface inclination of the hill-slope.
    (2) The degree of relief-energy of the surface form.
    (3) Areal distribution of some cultural elements of landscape formation.
    (4) Some areal connections of elements of surface form with that of cultural groups.
    (5) The degree of duration of cultivated land distribution.

    The rapid increase in population of the marginal suburbs of Tokyo is one of the most remarkable phenomena in recent years. A great horizontal (not vertical) expansion, by newly constructed houses has been made in the urban margin, which is a characteristic of Japanese city-growth. The result of it was that the City had to enlarge its municipal area in October, last year.
    The region under discussion is the area comprised in 12 sheets of the, 1/10, 000 scale maps of the western part of this enlarged city, except the old municipal area. The density is obtained by calculating the percentage of area occupied by houses per 100 metre square. Fig. 5 is an example of iso-density lines.
    In reading the density map (Plate I), we know that there are some high density zones which extend to long distances continuously, and that they follow the early laid suburban tram-car lines that skirt the highways, radiating from the city. Along the recently opened lines, only, small isolated towns are seen near certain stations. The N-E and S-E parts of the map are areas crowded with many communication lines and the seats of complicated, high-density population.
    We can then classify many house-blocks as in the case of geomorphology with the result shown in Fig. 6. Fig. 7 shows closed form groups of houses, namely, the small business centers.
    By field surveying (Fig. 8. 9 and Table. I, II), the author found that areas showing more than 15% of house-density have, in most cases, an urban character, hence the geographical (not political) boundary of the City of Tokyo has complicated outlines, as shown in Fig. 10. There are still same large non-urban areas Within the new municipal limit.
