Subject: Yet another genre/form question

I notice that two new genre/form headings are being used by LC:
655 0 Thematic maps.
655 0 Geological maps.
Neither appears on the initial list of such headings.
I would be enormously grateful if someone could point me to a
definitive, up-to-date list of genre/form headings for cartographic
materials. It would also be great to get a ruling as to whether
655 0 Thematic maps.
is to be used for all thematic maps for which another genre/form heading
is inappropriate.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
