Abstract
Most of these islands appear to be of volcanic origin, their centres rising to high-peaked, cone-shaped, mountains, of from 500 to 6000 feet in height. The weather, east and south-east, sides are clothed with thick forests from base to summit; but the north-west and west sides in many of them have but a thin sprinkling of trees, the slopes being covered with a thick, wiry grass.Keywords
