The most abundant insect on the grass slope was a small aeneous boo, flying in large numbers about the ferns and stunted shrubs. Passed through a little wooded tract, and open space containing taro, bananas and young coconut palms (to which the trail led). Hypolemmas bolina butterfly quite abundant here. Came out again on the fern and grass covered slope, which is covered with large lava rocks, boulders of various sizes up to 6 or 8 feet in diameter. Dark reddish gray to slate in color (took sample). Climbed to summit of Solotivitivi. Roll 53:3 The N.W. coast of Moala from slope near summit of Solotavitavi (1027'). Roll 53:4 (Not exposed). Roll 53:5 Dilli Moala (1535'), looking S.W. from summit of Solotivitivi. Note the extent of the bare areas. Roll 53:6 Looking S.S.E. toward high central plateau (visited yesterday) from same spot. Note the grass and fern covered areas. Back (S.) along ridge. Struck a path and followed it W.S.W. toward Dilli Moala. Crossed several streams, large even at this elevation. One tasted strongly of iron. Insect life on ridge poor. A few landshells on the trees. Very few trees in fruit or flower and a general sameness throughout. Collected a few specimens of ear fungus from a rotten log. Came out on bare area just S.E. of Dilli Moala and leading up to it. It resembles a great open park with its scattered shrubs and ironwoods. Climbed to the summit. A lot of lava rocks, scattered about the fern and grass covered areas, which look and feel like solid iron. (Sample). Quite abundant in outcrops and probably much more beneath. Small dark brown Tettigid grasshopper among the ferns. Roll 54:1 Looking S.S.E. toward Double Hill and the south end of Moala from summit of Dilli Moala (1535').
