the presence of Coccothrinax jucunda and Coceolobis on this end of the islet 

 strongly suggests that while it was occupied by charcoal burners they 

 probably kept a swine or two; that entirely uprooted the former, and 

 on account of them the coalers brought in and planted the latter. 



The southern end bears a strong vegetal resemblance to the other 

 small islets of the group, the association showing no peculiar characters.

This formation, only separated from "A" by a channel about 300 

 feet wide, shows no other character of differentiation from that key. 

 It is about one mile in length and is mostly a mangrove colony. Its 

 southern extremity rises in a sand ridge about 3 feet above tide, 

 upon which is the usual Uniola-Euphorbia association. The only 

 striking vegetal characters are the presence of Euphorbia trichotoma, 

 the implantation of the bit of beach central to the eastern margin with 

 Conocarpus; and the Avicennia connective between this and the next 

 small bit of sand beach to the north.
