Map Zone Strict Protejate.  This map is not as clear as others because it is smaller and because, except for a few Kilia islands, it does not show Ukraine.  The Starostambulske mouth is a faint line, without any outline of Ukrainian territory to either its east or west, although the distinctive curve at the point where the Biosphere Reserve boundary, following the international border, excludes the Dragon's Beard is unmistakable.  The George has unmistakably had its six large meanders bypassed.  

Map Zone Strict Protejate-2.  Detail from Map Zone Strict Protejate has been modified by the addition of labels with arrows pointing to significant mouths of the Danube, by the blackening of the Biosphere Reserve border along its northern and eastern boundaries, and by the coloring of the Dragon's Beard red, whose location is inferred even though never outlined on the original map.  Nothing marks the location of the Bystre on the original map, and its arrow above points at approximately where it would appear if drawn.  Gura Portitei label and location dot have been added, Romania's placing of a tourist resort within a UNESCO Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve Strictly Protected Zone (Zone 11: Periteasca-Bisericuta-Portita) is indicative of Romanania's refusing to allow real UNESCO committments to hinder its own economic development of the Danube Delta, though interested in using imaginary UNESCO committments to damage the economic development of its competitors.
