. INSKCUTOR INSCITI^ MENSTRUUS 183 



Genus CULICELLA Felt 



19. Culicella dyari Coquillett. 



Culex (Culicella) dyari Howard, Dyar and Knab, 1. c, iii, 457, 

 1915. 



It occurs in the northeastern States, westward to the moun- 

 tains of British Columbia. The larvae are found in the early 

 spring in the pools left from the melting of the snow. All 

 our records for the adults are in May. It appears there is but 

 a single annual generation and the winter must be passed in 

 the egg state. This species is not a Culex on habits any more 

 than by the structure of the male genitalia. 



Genus DEINOCERITES Theobald 



20. Deinocerites cancer Theobald. 



Deinocerifes cancer Howard, Dyar and Knab, 1. c, iii, 201, 1915. 

 This species has been taken in southern Florida. The larvae 

 live in the water in the holes of certain species of crabs along 

 the tropical seashore. While this forms not more than a sec- 

 tion of Culex by the male genitalia, the characters of the larvse 

 and adults have differentiated to such an extent that it is best 

 classed as a genus. 



A SECOND NOTE ON THE SPECIES OF CULEX OF 

 THE BAHAMAS 



(Diptera, Cidicidcc) 



By HARRISON G. DYAR 



The present author, jointly with Mr. Frederick Knab, pub- 

 lished a note on the species of Culex of the Bahamas, based 

 upon collections made in 1915. In Shattuck's "The Bahama 

 Islands," published by the Geographical Society of Baltimore, 

 Dr. T. H. CofBn lists the mosquitoes collected by himself in 

 1903. His names are as follows, together with the corrected 

 nomenclature supplied in Howard, Dyar and Knab's Mono- 

 graph, "Mosquitoes of North and Central America and the 

 West Indies," 1913-17.
