Sterra Blanca? Sierra Blanca!
editThis page (original [1]) also mentions in the southern Luconia Group, but according to the given coordinates way south of Herald Reef: 4°51'N 112°32'E --Ratzer (talk) 08:09, 22 May 2015 (UTC)
Chinese Name is 澄平礁, transcribed Chéng píng jiāo. Correct name is most likely Sierra Blanca, as this page suggests. See also Court report of lost ship, 1908. Chinese map (low quality) shows location of 澄平礁. Perhaps Sterra was an error in reading/copying Sierra.--Ratzer (talk) 09:30, 29 May 2015 (UTC)
