    The author focuses on the relationship between hyperelliptic maps and hyperelliptic Riemann surfaces. It is known that underlying any map \(M\) on an orientable surface, there is a unique Riemann surface \(X(M)\) naturally associated with \(M\). If \(M\) is hyperelliptic then so is \(X(M)\). It is also shown that in the special case when \(M\) is a regular map, the converse holds.
