This paper describes a geomorphological map representing a sector of the Ionian coastal belt, located in north-eastern Calabria, between the catchments of the Trionto and Colognati Rivers. The landforms have been distinguished according to their origin into: a) structural and tectonic-controlled landforms; b) gravity-induced landforms; c) landforms formed by running water; d) coastal and transitional landforms; e) anthropic landforms, using as support a simplified topographic map on scale 1:20,000. The geomorphological map provides information about the long-term evolution of the landscape and identifies the geomorphic processes presently active. Therefore, the map could be used in developing land management and planning guidelines.
