Cover illustration: An octagonal mosaic from the Kasbah de Telouet, High Atlas, Morocco, based on a modified quasilattice. The underlying quasilattice can best be seen in the blue-and-black portions of the pattern where the `standing' lozenges define bars of unit width and the diagonally positioned lozenges define bars with a width equal to 2. Four orientations of the bar scheme, 45° apart, and phason shifts (alternation of bars in the sequence) are present. Picture taken by Emil Makovicky during the 24th European Crystallographic Meeting 2007.
