Notes on the Aspect of the Vegetation of St. Martin. 277 



1. Vegetation of the tops of the hills. 



2. Vegetation of the level parts of the Island and of the lower 

 slopes of the hills. 



3. Vegetation of the seashore and the rocky parts. 



4. Vegetation of the cultivated region. 



Referring to page 267 we could substitute for the first three divisions 

 the same names I gave there, whereas the fourth division is almost 

 synonym with: Croton vegetation and in some cases also Erioden- 

 dronvegetation intermixed with, and partly replaced by ruderal 

 plants.
