dc.description.abstract	We compare the zonal-flow pattern in subsurface layers of the Sun with the distribution of surface magnetic features such as sunspots and polar faculae. We demonstrate that, in the activity belt, the butterfly pattern of sunspots coincides with the fast stream of zonal flows, although part of the sunspot distribution does spill over to the slow stream. At high latitudes, the polar faculae and zonal-flow bands have similar distributions in the spatial and temporal domains.	en
