III. ASIATIC SOUTH TEMPERATE SUBKINGDOM. 



1. The Swan Eiver Province (warm temperate), on the west coast 

 of Australia. 



2. The Flinders Province (temperate), along the southern coast of 

 Australia. 



3. The Moreton Province (warm temperate and temperate), on the 

 east coast of Australia. 



4. The Bass Province (subtemperate), from north of Port Jackson 

 to Van Diemens Land. 



5. The Tasmanian Province (cold temperate), including Van 

 Diemens Land. 



C. PACIFIC SECTION. 



I. PACIFIC TORRID SUBKINGDOM. 



1. The Polynesian Province (torrid). To this province belong 

 the Pacific Islands east of the East Indies, within the torrid region, 

 including all the groups between 20° south, and the Hawaiian Islands 

 on the north, embracing also the New Hebrides and nearly all of New 

 Caledonia. There are probably several subordinate districts, but as 

 they are imperfectly indicated by the Crustacea, we do not attempt to 

 lay them down. Tongatabu and Tahiti lie on the borders of the sub- 

 torrid region, in somewhat cooler waters than the Feejee or Samoan 

 Islands. 



2. The Hawaiian Province (north subtorrid), Hawaiian Islands 

 and others in the same range, to the north of west. 



3. The Raratongan Province (south subtorrid), including nearly 

 all the Hervey Islands south of west from Tahiti, with Pitcairn's and 

 the Gambier Islands, Ducie's, and some other islands in that vicinity. 



II. PACIFIC SOUTH TEMPERATE SUBKINGDOM. 



1. The Kermadec Province (warm temperate and temperate). A 

 few islands north of New Zealand lie in this province, and probably 

 also Norfolk Island, a little farther to the west.
