southern arms. Had thought that the ridge to the south-west was part of Ongea levu, but found that it was a separate island called Yanuia, separated from Ongea levu by a shallow channel. After much talk about Matau watu (stone adzes) was able to locate one and purchase it for a shilling. William said they were occasionally dug up in cultivating sweet potatoes and yams or manioc. Watching natives making kawa bowls and wooden combs. For the former they used a number of plane blades and gauges fastened to old fashioned wooden handles. One was made from a hatchet, fastened sidewise instead of vertically. For the latter (comb) making the tools were strictly modern: saw, plane and even a small square. Crossed head of east arm of bay by village (the entire arm being dry at half tide), and went S.S.E. along S.E. arm. This is rocky with occasional small sand beaches, covered with coconut palms and beach vegetation. Collected a robust, shiny fuscous Scarabaeid on the common beach legume; also some narrow waisted fuscous bugs and a small white and brown spider. Several good sized trees of noni (Morinda citrifolia) near the beach. Many of the forest trees grow on the rocky slopes behind the beaches, but saw no new ones in fruit or flower. Small shiny round black stink bug common on beach shrubs. Considerable of the Chirodendrone-like shrub with yellow flowers and brown pompoms (collected on rocky islet off Ongea ndriti). Saw some of the thorny trunked leguminous trees with bright red flowers. Although I collected it on Totoya, took another specimen (No. 434). Saw a huge dilo tree (callophyllum inophyllum), the trunk of which must have measured 8 or 10 feet in diameter. The spreading dome was easily 60 feet across. It was growing on the sand beach, not 25 feet from the water, on S.E. end of the island.
