Abstract
The structure of the sporadic meteor complex is determined from the data in 10 orbital surveys. In addition to the previously known apex, helion, antihelion and northern toroidal sources, we find a southern toroidal source and a splitting of the apex source. The size of the sources and possible origin of meteoroids from each region are discussed.Keywords
