420 group x: indo-chinese peninsula,
still the character of the sea-shore of the Indian peninsula, only the daily variation
is smaller. At Akyab the rain begins about the 20th of May and for weeks it
pours down with little interruption.
In Autumn and the cool season the climate differs but little from that of the
western shores of the bay in the same latitude; on an average the eastern coasts are
then a little cooler and more favoured by invigorating breezes.
The absolute Extremes are selected, for Rangun, from the observations of Dr. Mont-
gomery and Dr. Fayrer, May 1852 to April 1853. For the stations at a greater
distance from the shore I have no data including all the year.

Views from Pegu and Berma are contained in great numbers in various publications by Major
Yule; from the photographs of Capt. Tripe I have executed in colours some of the objects refer-
ring to architecture and ethnography; they will be given later as oil-prints in the Atlas. (For
illustrations of the Indian Archipelago I must refer to the Dutch colonial literature.)
