Excerpt from The Forests of the Hawaiian Islands On the island of Oahu the algaroba forest, covering densely about acres, extends in a narrow, almost continuous belt along the south and west coasts. In this situation it is fully protected from the northeast trade winds, which blow with great regularity from March to November - exposure to which it can not endure. The young trees are now growing in great numbers as high as feet above the sea. It is supposed by some people that algaroba is able to grow at this eleva tion only by gradual adaptation. Starting at sea level, the trees were at first acclimated Only to an elevation of a few hundred feet, but successive generations growing higher and higher up the slopes have at last produced trees which are able to grow at the altitude named. Indeed, since the trees now found at feet are all young and thrifty, it seems probable that they will extend much farther up the mountain slopes than they have yet done. On the other islands the algaroba occupies the same relative position, reaching up the dry slopes to an elevation of several hundred feet. The land which it has taken possession of is usually so stony, arid, and precipitous as to be utterly worthless for other purposes. There fore the advent of this tree is generally welcomed by the landowner. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Indigenous Trees of the Hawaiian Islands It has long been the writer's desire to give to the public a volume on the native trees of Hawaii, giving popular as well as technical descriptions of the trees peculiar to Hawaiian soil. At first it was thought that plain popular descriptions would suffice, but it soon became evident that the technical part could not be dispensed with, and in order to make the look valuable for both the layman and the scientist, it was therefore included. The rather lengthy introduction seemed an advisable featured and necessary, as it gives practically for the first time a more or less detailed description of all the floral regions and their plant associations found in this island group, not being restricted to trees alone but embracing the whole plant covering. In the sequence of families Engler and Prantl's Naturliche Pflanzenfamilien System has been followed, beginning with the Cryptogams and ending with the Composite. Under each species a complete reference and synonomy is given, as far as was possible. Of course, as in all works of this nature, mistakes will undoubtedly be found, which will have to be overlooked on account of the insular position of the writer, as it was not always possible to consult original works, some of them old and out of print and therefore unobtainable. It will not be out of place here to acknowledge the kind assistance of Miss Mary A. Day, the Librarian of the Gray Herbarium, for the loan of books and copies of articles, etc. Following the reference is a technical description, usually enlarged and based on material in the College of Hawaii Herbarium; only in such instances as when the plant is very common or has not been collected by the writer, are descriptions of old authors quoted. As far as possible native names are given under most of the trees in italics, as well as any legendary or other facts of sufficient interest, together with habitat, plant association, etc. Of a number of trees of which nothing is known of a popular nature, the technical side is enlarged upon, especially in the family Rutaceae (genus I Pelea) and Campanulaceae (tribe Lobelioideae). The writer wishes here to acknowledge above all the kind assistance of Prof. Dr. Ignatz Urban of Berlin. Prof. Le Compte of Paris, Prof. Dr. A Zahlbruckner of Vienna and Profs. H. L. Robinson and M. L. Fernald of Harvard, in the loan of herbarium material, mainly types, for comparison, without which the authenticity of many determinations would have been doubtful; this refers mainly to the tribe Lobelioideae of the family Campanulaceae, one of the most intricate tribes found in this Islands.

Excerpt from A Record of Forest Plantings in Hawaii No sustained efforts have been made to maintain organized records of all introductions throughout the Islands. Nor has an organized attempt been made to evaluate their adaptability on the many different sites in Hawaii. Among the many hundreds of introductions are possibly some valuable sleepers.

Excerpt from Ohia Forest Decline: Its Spread and Severity in Hawaii Thousands of acres of ohia and ohia-koa rain for est on the windward slopes of the island of Hawaii are suffering a severe epidemic. A high proportion of the trees have died on thousands of acres, and the forest decimation is continuing. The epidemic is affecting all ages of trees and forests on widely different sites. The specific cause (or causes) of the forest decline is not known, although both disease organisms and insects have been found associated with the dead and dying trees. Scientists from several agencies are using a multi disciplinary approach to investigate the problem. This paper deals with the determination of the extent, rate of spread, and severity of the forest decline.
