解説(安達)
 D.Parker氏からダエダリア(Daedaria;120W,-30)付近の画像が報告されてきた。驚いたことにダエダリア(Daedaria;120W,-30)が大きな暗い暗部として写っている。9日にはダストストームに覆われていたが、一気に南に移動したらしく、ダエダリアの南側に痕跡が残っている。私は今までにこれほど黒くなったダエダリア(Daedaria;120W,-30)を見たことがない。
 ファエトンティス(Phaethontis;150W,−45)付近が非常に明るく、発達したダストストームに覆われていることが判る。ここにも大きな活動領域があるようだ。
 北半球にはオリンピカ(Nix Olympica;135W,+25)が黒い斑点として見えている。全体がもやもやして、ダストストームは見られない。(reported by 1 observer)

The picture near Daedaria (120W,-30) has been reported from D.Parker. Surprisingly, Daedaria is reflected as a dark big dark part. Although covered with dust storm on the 9th, seemingly, it moved south at a stretch. As for duststorm, the trace remains in on the south of Daedaria. I have not seen Daedaria which became former that black. It is very bright in near Phaethontis (150W,-45), and it turns out that it is covered with developed dust storm. It seems that a big domain is also here. It is visible to the Northern Hemisphere as a spot with black Nix Olympica (135W,+25). The whole is misty and duststorm is not seen.

I have attached some Mars images from 11 July. 
The dust clouds are still prominent in the southern hemisphere and seem to cover the SPR.
 Some anomalous albedo features near bright dust cloud on AM limb.
