rHE fact that our New Zealand forests are entirely different from any other forests in the whole world cannot be too strongly emphasised. This makes the problems
connected with our native forests and their natural inhabitants exclusively one for New Zealand. Anything which applies to other forests does not necessarily apply to those of this country. Little is known of the habits and peculiarities of this special plant life —the economic relation of one plant to others, and many other matters connected with this peculiar forest which, apart from all other forests, Was evolved without the presence of mammals, and for ages has been widely separated by great oceans from all other large land masses.
