I've always assumed that the ";..." line in the example zone file right
after the SOA record and the (...) in the SOA record itself meant that
such information about the parent zone 2.0.192.in-addr.arpa had been
intentionally left out for the sake of brevity and clarity.

Subject: is this a valid zone file?
Looking at rfc2317
I see the example zone file
$ORIGIN 2.0.192.in-addr.arpa.
@ IN SOA my-ns.my.domain.
hostmaster.my.domain. (...)
;...
; <<0-127>> /25
0/25 NS ns.A.domain.
0/25 NS some.other.name.server.
;
1 CNAME 1.0/25.2.0.192.in-addr.arpa.
2 CNAME 2.0/25.2.0.192.in-addr.arpa.
3 CNAME 3.0/25.2.0.192.in-addr.arpa.
;
; <<128-191>> /26
128/26 NS ns.B.domain.
128/26 NS some.other.name.server.too.
;
129 CNAME 129.128/26.2.0.192.in-addr.arpa.
130 CNAME 130.128/26.2.0.192.in-addr.arpa.
131 CNAME 131.128/26.2.0.192.in-addr.arpa.
;
; <<192-255>> /26
192/26 NS ns.C.domain.
192/26 NS some.other.third.name.server.
;
193 CNAME 193.192/26.2.0.192.in-addr.arpa.
194 CNAME 194.192/26.2.0.192.in-addr.arpa.
195 CNAME 195.192/26.2.0.192.in-addr.arpa.
That has no NS server defined for the zone, just the ranges of
the zone.
Is that valid?
