[2] H. B. Guppy (_R. S. G. Soc. Magazine_, 1889) holds that there is
no sufficient proof of this connexion but gives interesting details
of the present movement.
[3] See G. F. Tijdeman's map of the depths of the sea in the eastern
part of the Indian archipelago in M. Weber's _Siboga Expedition_,
1903. The details of the coast forms of the island have been studied
by J. F. Snelleman and J. F. Niermeyer in a paper in the Veth
_Feestbundel_, utilizing _inter alia_ Guppy's observations.
[4] This Merapi must be carefully distinguished from Merapi the Fire
Mountain of Sumatra.

et Madoura_ (2 vols. and atlas, Amsterdam, 1896; also published in
Dutch)--a summary with map was published by Verbeek in _Peterm.
Mitt._ xliv. (1898), 24-33, pl. 3. Also K. Martin, _Die Eintheilung

[6] On the 16th of November the sun rises at 5.32 and sets at 5.57;
on the 16th of July it rises at 6.12 and sets at 5.57. The longest
day is in December and the shortest in June, while on the other hand
the sun is highest in February and October and lowest in June and
December.

[10] The _Annales de Buitenzorg_, with their _Icones bogorienses_,
are universally known; the _Teysmannia_ is named after a former
director. A history of the gardens was published by Dr Treub,
_Festboek van's Lands Plantentuin_ (1891).
[11] Bertha Hoola van Nooten published _Fleurs, fruits et feuillages
de la flore et de la pomone de l'île de Java_ in 1863, but the book
is difficult of access. Excellent views of characteristic aspects of
the vegetation will be found in Karsten and Schenck,
_Vegetationsbilder_ (1903).
[12] It is interesting to compare this with the natural
"reflorization" of Krakatoa. See Penzig, _Ann. jard. de Buitenzorg_,
vol. viii. (1902); and W. Botting in _Nature_ (1903).

(the Hague, 1877); and a series of papers by C. Poensen in _Meded.

their usual system, in which Tj- takes the place of the Ch- used in
