Lebot and Levesque s 1989 work was based upon an exhaustive collection of plant material. Piper wichmannii was obtained from Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands, and Vanuatu, which comprises its natural range. Piper methysti-cum was collected from cultivated plots on three islands representing Micronesia, eight representing Melanesia, and 24 from Polynesia. In all, more than 240 individual plant acquisitions were subjected to chemical and morphological analysis.

Dysidea avara from the Solomon Islands contained the melemeleones A (339) and B (340), which were identified by spectroscopic analyses [305]. They consist of a sesquiterpene linked to a quinone with an attached taurine residue [22]. 

Watson et al. (2006) analyzed an organic solution of propolis samples from different countries all around the world. The PCA performed on NMR data led to a clear distinction, mainly due to sugars content, between Asian and European samples African ones were more scattered even if barely grouped. Few propolis samples representative of Brazil, Pollen, and Solomon Islands were well differentiated.

The Board notes that the Democratic People s Republic of Korea and Liechtenstein have joined the community of States parties to the 1988 Convention. The Board calls on Equatorial Guinea, the Holy See, Kiribati, the Marshall Islands, Namibia, Nauru, Palau, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Somalia, Timor-Leste and Tuvalu to become States parties to that important international treaty and thus ensure its universal application.

The Ontong Java plateau (OJP) in the western Pacific (Figure 1) has been tectonically uplifted and exposed along its south eastern margin, at the Solomon Islands arc, mostly on the Islands of Maliata and Santa Isabel. In contrast to the CCOP, which has numerous exposed sections, these are currently the only known subaerial exposures of the OJP. The rest of our knowledge of the OJP comes from a series of drill holes DSDP Site 289 and OOP Sites 803 and 807 (Mahoney et al.

Fig. 7. An example of upper-mantle splitting analysis for a Solomon Islands event recorded at the Canadian station ULM. The top traces show the radial and transverse component before and after the correction for SKS and SKKS splitting. The vertical bars marked A and F indicate the analysis window. It should be noted that after the correction the SKS and SKKS energy is minimized on the transverse component. The four lower-left panels show the isolated slow (continous line) and fast (dashed line) shear waves and the particle motion within the analysis window before and after the splitting correction. It should be noted also that the particle motion becomes linear after the correction. The lower right panel shows the confidence intervals for the sphtting parameters. The 95% confidence interval is the innermost circle around the asterisk at 50° and 0.96 s.
