In South America it includes most of the Pacific Slope (Peru and Chile) south to Araucania; and eastward of the Andes, the greater portion of the plains of western Brazil and Argentina. In Europe only a small portion of the Mediterranean border is included ; but the entire African coast- belt opposite, with the Saharan and Libyan deserts, Egypt and Arabia, are included therein, as well as, south of the Equator, a considerable portion of South Africa (Kalahari desert). In Asia, Asia Minor, Syria... (with Palestine), Mesopotamia, Persia, and northwestern India up to the Ganges, and north- ward, the great plains or steppes of central Asia eastward to Mongolia and western China, fall into the same category; as does also a large portion of the Australian continent.
