W artykule autor ukazuje cztery problemy regionalizacji fizycznogeograficznej w słowackiej części Karpat. Należą do nich: granica pomiędzy Małą Fatrą a Magurą Orawską, przynależność fizycznogeograficzna Szypskiej Fatry, przynależność fizycznogeograficzna Szczyrbskiego Działu oraz ranga taksonomiczna Gór Lewockich. Omówiono dotychczasowe rozwiązania tych problemów przez autorów polskich i słowackich, dokonano krytycznej ich oceny i zaproponowano nowe rozwiązania.

The author presents an attempt to solve several problems of physicogeographical divisions in the Slovak part of the Carpathians. Different regionalizations (Hromadka 1956, Kondracki 1978, Mazur, Lukniś 1978, 1982, Czeppe, German 1979, Balon et al. 1995, Balon, Jodłowski 2005) are discussed and then critically evaluated. New solutions proposed are based on the analysis of selected features of natural environment and guided by the principles described in the author’s other paper (Balon 2000). The new course of the border between the Mala Fatra and the Oravska Magura should be delineated along the line: Istebné – Istebnianka stream valley – the pass (865 m a.s.l.) between Mračkovo and Opálené – Plešivský stream valley. The physicogeographical status of the Šipska Fatra massif and the Chočské Vrchy was also the subject of the study. As a result of the analysis of the border between two basins, the Liptovska Kotlina and Spišska Kotlina, a separate physicogeographical region Štrbský Divide was distinguished. The physicogeographical status of the Levočske Vrchy was also taken into consideration. In the author’s opinion those mountains form a macroregion together with the Bachureň Mts. and parts of the Medzihorie Spišsko-Šarišské. Selected issues presented in the paper indicate a need for a more detailed (to the level of microregion) physicogeographical regionalization of the Central Western Carpathians.
