Reinterpretation of Andrusov?s (1950), 1:25,000 scale, tectonic map of the Široká Javorinská (PL: Szeroka Jaworzyńska) Tectonic Depression, Eastern Tatra Mts, allows to distinguish a number of SSW-NNE-trending faults which cut both the Subtatric and the Hightatric tectonic units. Recognition of these faults, belonging to the post-Palaeogene (probably Sarmatian) fault system, have a bearing on correct interpretation of architecture of the area. Eight Hightatric tectonic units and five Subtatric tectonic units shown in maps and geological cross-sections, are based on reinterpretation of the data provided in papers by D. Andrusov, Z. Kotański and J. Lefeld. Some problems related to interregional correlation of these units, their age and direction of thrusting are outlined.
