We report measurements of the sunspot rotation rate at high sunspot latitutdes for the years 1966-1968. Ten spots at [latitude[-> 28 deg were found in our Mees Solar Observatory Ha patrol records for this period that are suitable for such a study. On the average we find a sidereal rotation rate of 1
## Abstract We present the data concerning the distribution of various sunspot magnetic classes over the solar butterfly diagram and discuss how this data can inform solar dynamo models. We use the statistics of sunspots that violate the Hale polarity law to estimate the ratio of the fluctuating an
