门台群岛位于苏门答腊岛以西，由西伯鲁特岛、西波拉岛、北帕吉岛和南帕吉岛组成。第一个也是最北的一个，大致为四边形，长约60英里，宽约25英里，比其他三个(大小大致相等)的总和还要大：在它们的海岸附近也有一些小岛。这个群与苏门答腊岛的海岸平行，距离大约50到80英里：它的北端是拉特。1“南。1892年，E·莫迪利亚尼博士收集了西波拉岛的动物标本，1902年，W·L·阿博特博士和我收集了帕吉群岛的动物标本；但西伯鲁特从未被B博物学家研究过，直到1924年9月，我在新加坡莱佛士博物馆助理馆长N·斯尼德利先生和一群当地助手的陪同下，才来到西伯鲁特。自访问帕吉群岛以来，我曾多次向荷兰政府和印度政府提出申请。允许访问西比鲁特，但由于印度尼西亚居民的态度，制裁被扣留，这是该集团中最后一名接受管理的人。然而，终于在1923年，政府同意了R访问，并在一年后的时间到来时，像往常一样，以最慷慨的方式提供了援助。在西伯鲁特(9月10月)花了一天。在西波拉(10月-科罗夫州)，除了获得了大量的动物学资料，包括脊椎动物和无脊椎动物外，还收集了植物和民族志物品。已编写的关于所有QE的报告均以《Spolia Mentawiensia》的总标题出版。N.Ridiey，Eew I.明塔维群岛的植物群。公告。1926年，第56-94页。
The Mentaai Group, to the west of Sumatra, consists of the islands of Siberut, Sipora, and North and South Pagi. The first and northernmost, roughly quadrilateral, about sixty geographical miles long arid twenty-five wide, is larger than the other three (which: ire fairly equal in size) put together: there are also a number of small islands near their shores. The group lies parallel to the coast of Sumatra and about fifty to eighty miles distant: its northern extremity is Lat. 1" South. The mniiimals of Sipora Island had been collected by Dr. E. Modigliani in 1892, and those of the Pagi Islands by Dr. W. L. Abbott and myself in 1902; but Siberut had never been worked by B naturalist until I landed there in September 1924, accompanied by Mr. N. Sniedley, Assistant Curator of the Raffles Museum, Singapore, and a party of native assistants. I had several times since the visit to the Pagi Islands applied to the Government of Netherlands India for. permission to visit Siberut, but sanction hat1 been withheld on account of the attitude of the Indonesian inhabitants, the last in the group to come under administration. At length, in 1923, however, the Government was able to agree to R visit, and when the time came a year latter to make it, gave assistance, as usual, in a most generous manner. A nionth was spent on Siberut (SepLOct.) and another on Sipora (Oct.-Kov.), and besides obtaining much zoological material, both vert8ebra te and invertebrate, collections of plants and ethnographical objects were made as well. Reports on all theqe, as prepared, are being published under the general title 6 Spolia Mentawiensia.'The following have already appeared:-H. N. Ridiey, Eew i. The Flora of the Mentawi Islands.
