Journal of the Asiatic Society of Bengal Part II.—Natural Scienc. 1883

1883

UNDERSIDE pale ochreous the outer portion of the forewing and on either side of the submargipal lunules on the hindwing somewhat deeper ochreous becoming ferruginous at the anal angle of the latter. [...] LI Part II of the Journal of the Asiatic Society of Bengal suggest the possibility of making use of the instrument to measure the heat received from the sun. [...] Blanford the excess of thi maximum temperature in the sun above the maximum in the shade is affected by variations in the folloing and perhaps other conditions as well as by variations in the beat emited from the sun. [...] This is almost certainly the result of taking the mean vapour tension for the whol*month instead of that for the clear days only The other differences are probably due in great part to the unavoidable neglect of variations in the condition of tho ground surface. [...] We soon came to the end of the dividing spit as seen now at least (in the cold season) and found the Buri Diking water /wring down a rapid at one side with a fall of probably 4 feet in the first 40 yards the shingle was all large and in crossing at the head of the rapid wading was not easy even though the water was not more than a foot to two feet deep.
