New Hebrides
TN the April number of the journal La A Terre et La Vie, published in Paris, there is a long and very interesting article, “Les Divers Aspects de la Vege tation aux Nouvelles Hebrides,” by E.
Aubert de la Rue.
Monsieur de la Rue, a scientist of dis t nction, spent several months in the New Hebrides in 1934, 1935 and 1936, on behalf of the Museum of Natural History, Paris, and his inquiries appear to have covered a wide field, in addition to his botanical research. As a result, we have, in this article, a mass of useful and in teresting information dealing with, not only the vegetation of the group, but also the geological structures, the climate, native gardens, and the agricultural and pastoral possibilities of the New Hebrides.
