On the calcareous soil near Bolivia we find a still denser
Croton vegetation. The ground is there in some places densely
covered with Spermacoce tenuior, Pectis, Pappophorum, Sida,
Aristida Swartziana, Croton ovalifolius, the higher shrubs being
mostly Jacquinia barbasco, Bursera simaruba, Randia aculeata,
Malpighia, Bursera tomentosa, Cordia cylindrostachya, Capparis
jamaicensis, Caesalpinia coriaria, Haematoxylon Brasiletto. On the
ground we find many Panicum lachnanthum, Krameria ixina,
Eragrostis ciliaris. In other places Rhacoma crossopetalum and
Coccoloba diversifolia are the principal shrubs, between which
Pisonia bonairensis, Bumelia obovata, Guaiacum sanctum, Beureria
succulenta, Metopium Brownei, Casearia bonairensis and a few
Tecoma chrysantha as trees. Among the lower plants we notice
Euphorbia thymifolia, Morinda Royoc, Mariscus fuligineus, Corchorus
tomentosus. On the Northern slopes of these lime terraces Clusia
rosea is very conspicuous.
As an example of the vegetation...”
