depicted for transfer to the United States on the map entitled 
``Boundary Map, Biscayne National Park, Stiltsville'', numbered ____,

interest of the United States in and to the approximately equal acres 
of property depicted on that map for transfer to the State of Florida.
    (b) Map and Legal Description.--The map referred to in subsection
