Τῇ καὶ τῇ κυανῇσι] Τῷεἰπεῖν κατάστικτον καὶ ποικίλην ἔδειξε πολλὰ χρώματα τῆς γῆς (ἦ γὰρ ἂν οὐκ ἦν κατάστικτος, ἀλλ᾿ αὐτόθεν μέλαινα). Διάφορος γὰρ ἡ Λιβύη τοῖς χρώμασιν· ἐστὶ γὰρ μελάγγεως, ψαμμώδης, ἀργιλλώδης, ἐρυθρόβωλος. Ἄλλως. Ποικίλλεται γὰρ ταῖς λεπίσι ξηρασίας ἡ γῆ τῆς Λιβύης, καὶ ἐστιν ὥσπερ ἡ παρδάλεως δορά. Κατάστικτος δὲ ἢ γῆ ἐκ μεταφορᾶς τῆς παρδάλεως.
