AB: We will present the results of our study of coronal bright points (XBPs) using SoHO/EIT data and an automatic identification procedure. The latitude-longitude distribution of XBPs obtained during the period of very low sunspot activity (March-April 1996) is not uniform; it exhibits structures reminiscent of active longitudes and large-scale circular patterns. We also find XBPs associated with emergence of ephemeral active regions. We interpret these results as a possible indication of two types of XBPs that are characteristic of quiet and active Sun.
