PLATE III 



Fig. 5 (top). Southeast from Jack Evertzsberg, southwestern Curasao. 

 In the foreground is the seaward slope of the older limestone (C7a) ; in 

 the background are the similar monadnocks of Veerisberg, Seroe Pretoe 

 (C6c; note the fossil beaches), Seroe Domi (C6a), and Fort Nassau 

 (C5d) ; while in the far distance, to the right of the center, is the Taf el- 

 berg of Santa Barbara (C2). A bit of the Schottegat, and the lower 

 inland country, are visible between Jack Evertzsberg and Veerisberg. 



Fig. 6 (middle). South from Landhuis Knip, northwestern Curasao. 

 In the foreground is one of the richer, open valleys of northern Curasao ; 

 the dark masses of vegetation are mainly divi-divi trees, while the inter- 

 jacent portions are choked with acacias and Opuntia. To the left of the 

 background are the seaward slopes of Seroes Palomba and Bientoe (Cre- 

 taceous outcrops), separated by a hidden valley (Cbl7a). Farther back 

 to the right is the limestone mesa of Seroe Djerimi (C17a). 



Fig. 7 (lowest). Tlie northern escarpment of the Schaarlo (C.5c), south- 

 western Curasao. The foreground shows a protected portion of the recent 

 limestone, with a rather dense growth of crotons and acacias. The more 

 barren crest of the Schaarlo is at the extreme right. In the left back- 

 ground is a bit of the Schottegat with the rounded hills of the inland 

 country and the hofjes of the riclier valleys; the Tafelberg of Sante 

 Barbara (C2) is also visible.
