  This work was intended as an attempt to extend the results on localization of
Fourier-Laplace series to the spectral expansions of distributions on the unit
sphere. It is shown that the spectral expansions of the distribution on the
unit sphere can be represented in terms of decompostions of Laplace-Beltrami
operator. It was of interest to establish sufficient conditions for
localization of the spectral expansions of distribution to clarify the latter
some relevant counter examples are indicated.
