"Grass" and trees. See Rustumite Plants.
Insectoids.
Huge winged creatures very different from those on the High America plateau.
Hot, heavy windless air. (Usually the wind is a powerful presence in Andersonian narratives.)
Pungent, sweet, rank or bitter odors, none familiar to a plateau-dweller.
Trills, whispers, buzzes, rustles, footfalls and "purling water" but no speech - until now.
Four senses. The explorers do not eat anything.

But we do see mention of how the winds on the lowlands of Rustum are slow but heavy and powerful.
