There seems to be a problem in the way that mountain ranges are identified.

For example, if you do a search of "Sierra Nevada" in the US and select the one whose feature class is "range", its icon is "u" (which seems to correspond to "underseas").

The same problem seems to occur with feature class of "flat."

Moreover, the choice for "range" does *not* appear under the "mountain, hill, rock" tree menu on the maps.

Thanks, you are right. These toponyms should not have the 'undersea' feature class. I have changed them to 'mountain/hill/rock'.
