• Measurements of precipitating electron and proton fluxes in the Antarctic are reviewed. It is evident that the South atlantic Anomaly and the large displacement of the south geomagnetic pole from the geographic pole are the dominating factors determining the distribution of particle precipitation in longitude. Most observations of energy spectra and pitch angle distributions have been averaged over longitude and are usually given in terms of magnetic coordinates thus losing interesting data from the geographical point of view. It is suggested that it would be worth the effort to re-analyse existing data to look for spectral and pitch angle dependence on longitude in the south polar regions. A short summary of the asymmetry between the north and south polar caps is also given.
