The study of geothermal events is very important in understanding planetary evolution. Magellan's high resolution SAR images will help us to better understand the geology of Venus. This research was conducted to determine if patterns exist in the way that small volcanoes (1 to 20 km in basal diameter) occur in and around the five classes of coronae. Definite patterns in the distribution by distance were observed relating to three of the five coronae classes. At 200 +/- 50 km from the centers of Concentric, Radial/concentric, and Asymmetric coronae an significant increase in the number of small volcanoes is observed. On Multiple and Concentric Double-ring coronae a more random distribution is observed.
