Its summit is rocky and bare; while those of most of the other high peaks are wooded, as are their upper slopes. The forehill grass harbors a quantity of large grasshoppers of the Concephalus group, as well as smaller long-antennaed species and several crickets. There are also a number of species of moths - small brown, large dark brown and an Agaristid. Yellow and brownish-white butterflies. Numerous outcrops of reddish, grayish and brown basaltic rock on hill-side. Took samples from small ravine. In working down a small wooded valley, besides the specimens taken (230, 231, 232, etc.) noted kukui, ti, wa-ava-aiku (Piper), maile fern, red peppers, etc. Collected two large spiders, called tukutuku.

Ashore at 7:30, landing to S.E. of an anchorage at the foot of a hill marked "276 feet" on the map. Walked south along the shore. So many plants in fruit and flower, new to me, that I had my knapsack full by 11: and returned to the sea shore to press them. Much of the bay is lined with mangroves, both the species collected near Suva (195, 196) being present. Behind the mangroves lies a belt of trees and shrubs, most of which were new to me and many of which I succeeded in getting as specimens. Of these I knew there were:- kukui, hau, noni, Piper (Ava-ava-aiku), puapua, papaya, and kamani (Barringtonia speciosa). Too wet to collect many insects. Saw seven large species including the swallowtail and other butterflies.
