De America qvarta irbis par te cum aliis nouis insulis appositis (leaves 60-62) relate to America. "The author follows the suggestion made by Waldseemüller, in 1507, and calls this fourth part of the world America or Amerigen. Schöner's book is probably the second, after the various editions of the Cosmographiae Introductio, to contain the word America."--Church 37.

Compiled to accompany Schöner's globe which he made in 1515.
