of sharp, low, conical hills with precipitous sides and enclosed circular
depressions (the cockpits) with sharp, steep slopes. This region, which is
located in the north central part of the island and lies 1000-2500 ft.

mostly of Calophyllum calaba, Brosimum alicastrum, Nectandra spp., and
Bumelia spp.
