KiribatiEnderbury Island (part of the Phoenix Group)
Enderbury Island lies 37 nautical miles E.S.E. of Canton and 186 miles south of the equator. In contrast to Canton Island,which is largely lagoon,Enderbury is nearly solid land,with the lagoon reduced to a small,shallow pond,a few hundred yards across,and dotted with sand islets,covered with a mat of Sesuvium,which also carpets the surrounding basin.
The island measures a little less than three miles north and south by about a mile wide. The elevation around much of the rim is between 15 and 22 feet,with a small mound of low-grade guano rising as high again on the northwest side. The central part is depressed toward the south,and to the north has been dug over for guano until it resembles a great mine dump.
Much of the surface is carpeted by herbs,bunchgrass,Sida,and morning-glory vines,and there are also several small clumps of trees. These include three groups of coconut palms,each surrounding a moist depression. Of these there were in 1924,from north to south,22,12,and 26 palms; in 1938 several of these were seen to have lost their crown of leaves,14,9,and 8 still growing.
Near the south end there are two large and six small clumps of kou trees; also one clump on each side of the mound,and a few scattered trees. A grove of green heliotropes covers a few acres near the centre of the west side,with a smaller thicket on the southeast rim,and a single tree which screens the camp from the sea.
Most of the beach is composed of sandstone slabs and coral rubble,alternating with short stretches of sand. The northern end is surfaced with jagged fragments of coral,which clink as one walks over them. No wonder natives at some period,guano diggers or before,built paths of smooth stones across this area. One can easily imagine that,at time of storms,waves may sweep across this low part of the island. The steep beach is fringed by reef 60 to 200 yards wide.
Birds are abundant

利島(鳳凰集團的一部分)
利島位於37海里的E.S.E.粵菜和赤道以南186英里。坎頓島相比，這很大程度上是潟湖，利幾乎是堅實的土地，瀉湖降低到一個又小又淺的池塘，在幾百碼，點綴著沙子的小島，覆蓋著一Sesuvium墊，這也地毯周圍的盆地。
島上措施有點不到三英里的北部和南部大約一英里寬。海拔約多的rim是15至22英尺，有一個小堆低級的鳥糞上升又高的西北邊。中部是抑鬱向南，向北一直挖了對鳥糞直到它像一個大礦垃圾場。
太多的表面是中藥鋪著地毯，bunchgrass,Sida，牽牛花藤使幼稚園，還有幾個小叢生的樹木。這些包括三個組的椰子樹，每個周圍的一個潮濕的抑鬱。這些有1924年，從北至南，22日，12日和26日手心；1938年，其中的幾個被認為已經失去了自己的冠冕的葉子，14日，9日和8仍然在增長。
南端附近有兩個大型和六個小型聚集的寇樹；也一叢兩邊的投手丘，和一些零散的樹木。一片綠色的纈草覆蓋幾英畝的中心附近西邊，用一個更小的灌木叢對東南亞的邊緣，和一個樹，螢幕從海上的營地。
大多數的海灘是由砂岩石板和珊瑚碎石，交替使用短綿延的沙灘上。北端是與鋸齒狀碎片珊瑚的浮出水面，這是我們走過他們碰杯。難怪當地人在某個時期，鳥糞挖掘機或之前，構建路徑中光滑的石頭在這個區域。很容易想像，在時間的風暴，波濤席捲這個低的部分島嶼。陡峭的海灘流蘇礁60到200碼寬。
鳥類豐富
