Cnliseta consobrinus Desv. 



All but one of the specimens obtained were bred from larvae 

 collected on the south side of the city. The wigglers were 

 found in a woodland ditch with stagnant water near Eighty- 

 second Street and Stony Id. Avenue (April 28, 1907), in a 

 roadside ditch near Seventy-ninth Street and East Avenue 

 (June 2, 1907), in a pool of foul water at Sixty-third Street 

 and Cottage Grove Avenue (September 8, 1907), and in a 

 ditch, with apparently fresh water, at West Pullman (May 

 17, 1908). 



Culex restuans Theob. 



Adults of this species were bred from larvae collected in 

 fresh water at \Yillow Springs (June 24, 1906), and at Le- 

 mont (July i, 1906). The immature stages, as well as a few 

 adults, were also taken in Chicago. The records for this mos- 

 quito, however, are so few in number that there is a good rea- 

 son for believing that it was generally mistaken for the com- 

 mon C. pipiens, especially since it appears to be fairly abun- 

 dant in other sections of the country. 



Culex territans Walk. 



The only specimens obtained are those which were bred 

 from larvae collected in various parts of the south side of 

 the city. The larvae were found in a ditch at the edge of a 

 marsh along South Chicago Avenue (August 5, 1906) ; in a 

 marsh hole near Eighty-eighth Street and Stony Id. Avenue 

 (September 9, 1906) ; in a drainage ditch near Eighty-second 

 Street and Cottage Grove Avenue (September 16, 1907), and 

 in lot pools at Sixty-third Street and Prairie Avenue (Sep- 

 tember 8, 1907), and Fortieth and Wallace Streets (Septem- 

 ber 15, 1907). 



Culex pipiens Linn. 



As might be expected both the larvae and the adults of this 

 widely distributed species were found quite commonly in 

 various parts of the city, as well as in the surrounding re- 

 gion. Many local records could be given for this mosquito, 

 but they would add nothing new to what is already known
