THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 51 



the middle of the mesonotum are either discoloured slightly or normally 

 yellowish, two long oblong, bare, black, laterad spaces about one-third the 

 length of the mesonotum extend cephalad from near the scutellum ; 

 scutellum black, partly denuded, but with a heavy bunch of flat, rather 

 fusiform, white scales on the lateral lobes, bristles black ; pleura black, 

 with gray lines ; metonotum very dark. 



Abdomen black, densely covered with brown hairs, and the eighth 

 segment and genitalia rather closely covered with long flat more or less 

 spatulate brown scales. 



Legs : coxae and trochanters testaceous with dark hairs and white 

 scales ; all the femora covered with dark brown scales, the hind and mid 

 legs with a white subapical spot on the cephalic aspect, and all of them 

 with apex very narrowly white-banded ; tibite all brown, with small apical 

 spot or band ; first tarsal joints all brown, in the hind leg with small apical 

 white spot extending slightly on the second joint, in the fore and mid with 

 narrow apical white bands ; second tarsal brown, with broad white apical 

 bands, broadened on the hind leg, in which all the remaining joints are 

 pure white, and in the other legs the third and fourth are apically white- 

 banded, the fore leg the more distinctly, the fifth brown ; ungues large, 

 simple and equal. 



Wing clear, covered heavily with dark brown scales resembling those 

 found in Myzorhynchus ; costa with four small white spots, all apparently 

 confined to the costa, and one at the apex ; a white fringe spot at the 

 junction of the upper fork of second long vein ; first submarginal cell 

 large, a fourth longer and quite as wide as the second posterior, its stem 

 half its length; second posterior cell shorter than first submarginal, its 

 stem nearly as long as the cell ; upper cross-veins equal and meet, 

 posterior cross-vein equal to and a little more than its length distant from

Length, 4 mm. Habitat : Camp Gregg, Pangasinan, Philippine 

 Islands. Taken in August. 



Described from one very perfect specimen sent by Capt. Schreiner, 

 Asst. Surgeon U. S. x\rmy. It is noticeably different even to the naked 

 eye from most of the Anopheli?ice, but I am not sure that it belongs to 

 Chagasia, as Mr. Theobald makes the outstanding scales of the thorax of 

 generic value, and states specifically that the abdomen is nude. 



A new species in one of Mr. Theobald's new genera has aLo lately 

 come from the Philippine Islands ;
