Abstract
One of the major puzzles in the study of stellar surfaces has been the discovery of cool starspots at high latitudes, some of which even straddle the rotational poles of rapidly-rotating late-type stars. The puzzle comes because the Sun shows spots only in two narrow equatorial bands. The role of the Sun in understanding stellar magnetic activity is nevertheless important and intercomparisons should be made whenever possible.
