The area investigated was about 45 miles along the coast of Kimanis 

 Bay, from Jesselton to Membakut, roughly between 115° and 116° 

 E. long, and 5° and 6° N. lat., the distance from the coast varying 

 between 6 and 9 miles. Much of the coast is swampy, with scattered 

 hills of from 50-200 ft. high, and much of the jungle has been felled
