We study ergodic properties of a family of interval maps that are given as the fractional parts of certain real Möbius transformations. Included are the maps that are exactly $n$-to-1, the classical Gauss map and the Renyi or backward continued fraction map. A new approach is presented for deriving explicit realizations of natural automorphic extensions and their invariant measures.
