INthe year 1600, more than a century after the discovery of the New World, the Por- tuguese visited Barbados ; and about five years subsequent to that event, it was taken possession of, in the name of our Ring James, by Captain Cataline ; but it was Captain VOL. 11. B 2 BARBADOS. Powell who laid the foundation of James Town, twenty years after the visit of the former gentleman ; since which it has con- tinued in the possession of the English, and is generally allowed to be the most ancient of our Western colonies. This island, though less beautiful in its localities than Grenada, Trinidad, and others, has many claims to our admiration ; and it is here that voyagers from Britain, are generally first greeted by the sight of creoles, palm trees, and the luxuriant vegetation of the tropics. Carlisle Bay is not comparable to the Gulf of Paria, nor is Bridgetown any thing like Port of Spain .; but in sailing into the former, many pleasing objects attract the attention ; and the traveller through the island, which perhaps I ought to state is about twenty miles in length, and fourteen in breadth, may be pleased with a variety of picturesque scenes. There is but little land uncultivated, and though perhaps not as fer- tile as formerly, when it was considered the most productive of the colonies, bears not the appearance of neglect visible in the beautiful valleys of Trinidad.

Robison Rd. Texarkana, TX 75505-5518 Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT In the early sixteenth century, the area that today comprises eastern Venezuela and its offshore islands enriched Spain with pearls, supplied Spanish colonists with Indian slaves, and generated high hopes of finding interior civilisations rich in gold. However, the prosperity of Spanish colonies in this region (called the Pearl Coast) proved tragically short-lived, lasting less than two decades. Using Garrett Hardin’s concept of the ‘tragedy of the commons’, this article examines Spanish overexploitation of both the oyster beds around the island of Cubagua and the native peoples along the mainland by competing groups of Spaniards. Building upon the works of historians such as Pablo Ojer and Enrique Otte, and utilising archival research and Otte’s seldom-used compilations of primary documents, this article analyses the dramatic but little-known history of the Pearl Coast, where damage to the environment went hand in hand with the enslavement and decimation of native populations.

  • Notes on the Cactaceae of Curaçao, Aruba, Bonaire and North Venezuela
    Notes on the Cactaceae of Curaçao, Aruba, Bonaire and North Venezuela by P. Wagenaar+Hummelinck (Utrecht). (With plates V—XII). The present publication deals with the distribution of the Cactaceae on the islands situated between Trinidad and the peninsula of La Goajira. The material and the field observations on which this study is founded, were collected on two trips to the West Indies, made respectively in 1930 and in 1936—37. far the In this paper I have followed, as as possible, mono- graph of the Cactaceae by Britton and Rose. Sometimes, how- the limits of certain have been extended further ever, species than these and other authors would probably have allowed. In these comment cases, a simple only has been made, because, unfortunately, I have not had the opportunity to thoroughly study these questions. The material collected, preserved partly in formaline and partly in alcohol, has been deposited in the Botanical Museum refer this at Utrecht. All descriptions to material and to my own field observations. Data cited from literature, are marked with asterisk. have an Vernacular names are given only when I heard them from the natives themselves; the spelling is Spanish (Venezuela, Colombia) or phonetic Netherlandish (Curasao, rule literature Aruba, Bonaire). As a only in connection with the islands is quoted and only when not mentioned by Britton and Rose. Britton and Rose mention three endemic species from Aruba, Curasao and Bonaire (Opuntia curassavica, Cereus repandus and Cephalocereus lanuginosus) and one from Margarita (Cereus margaritensis). This pointed to a probably not unimportant the with apartness of cactusflora of these islands, as compared that of the adjacent continent.
