The distribution of approximately 70 gamma-ray bursts on the celestial sphere relative to the solar-equator plane is examined, and two basic burst characteristics are investigated: their pair production and their concentration toward the heliographic latitudes of + and 12, + and - 34, + and - 56, and - 79 deg. The analysis of the data suggests that the bursts have a heliospheric origin. The presence in the heliosphere of a current sheet on one of the heliolatitudes of burst concentration suggests that the latitudinal zonality in the distribution of bursts reflects the structure of the heliomagnetosphere and the large-scale solar magnetic field. In addition, it is suggested that the number of bursts depends on the phase of solar activity.
