21. Culex (Culex) reflector Dyar and Knab. 



Culex reflector Howard, Dyar and Knab, Monog., iii, 419, 1915. 

 The same remark applies as for interrogator.

iss., Hi, 356, 1909. 

 Culex aseyehce Dyar and Knab, Ins. Insc. Mens., iii, 112, 1915. 



The genitaha furnish no characters for considering revo- 

 cator as a distinct species pecuHar to Jamaica. 



23. Culex (Culex) pipiens Linnaeus. 



Culex pipiens HoAvard, Dyar and Knab, Monog., iii, 360, 1915.

There seems now no doubt that pipiens is more widely dis- 

 tributed than given by us in the monograph. Not only does 

 it occur in California, as shown by Mr. Knab and myself (Ins. 

 Ins. Mens., v, 178, 1917), but the excellent figures recently pub- 

 lished by Juan Brethes show that it is widespread in Chile and 

 Argentina, under the name Culex flavipes. The name flavipes 

 must therefore be hereafter cited in the synonymy of pipiens 

 instead of quinquefasciatus, as in the monograph (vol. iii, 

 p. 345. 1915). 



24. Culex (Culex) coronator Dyar and Knab. 



Culex coronator Howard, Dyar and Knab. Monog., iii, 286, 1915. 



25. Culex (Culex) ousqua, new species. 



Male genitalia. Lobe of side piece divided, the inner por- 

 tion large and conical, bearing 10 to 13 hairs, no spines being 

 distinguishable ; outer portion small, distinct, bearing about 

 five hairs. Otherwise as in coronator, the second plate of 

 unci commonly with fewer teeth, four to seven. 



The male adult has faint white rings at both ends of the 

 tarsal joints, the last hind tarsal white ; abdomen with white 

 basal segmental bands, mesially produced, as in coronator.
