 A sketch is given of the outstanding features of mosquito biologv', 

 and the most important remedial measures are outlined. A list of 32 

 mosquitos so far recorded in North Carohna is given, with brief notes 

 relating to their specific habitats and importance as disease carriers.

Much of the svnonymy of Argentine mosquitos here discussed has 



been further considered in a later paper by Dyar 'R.A.E., B, \ii, 107]. 



As regards Anopheles {Cellia) argyrotarsis, R.D., the author disagrees 



with the statement of Neiva, who'm 1909 gave the distribution of this 



species as covering the whole of Brazil, and also with the latter's 



treatment of A. albitarsis, L\-nch, as a s}-nonym of it. ^Accordmg to 



Dyar A. albitarsis is a sjmonym of .-1. pidipennis, Phil.^ Larvae have 



been found in Buenos Aires "and its \icinity that are in all probabihty 



of this species and of A. annulipalpis, L^Tich, though this cannot be 



verified until the adults have been reared. Cases of malaria have 



definitely been recorded in Buenos Aires, and it is thought that this 



marks the South American limit of the distribution of both .\nopheluies 



and malaria. It is probable that these species are abimdant further 



north, about Lake Ibera, in Paraguay and the south of Brazil. 



Anopheles pseiidopunctipennis, Theo. [Proterorhynchus argentiniis, 

 Brethes) has only been recorded from \>nezuela and the Argentine 

 RepubHc, in spite of surveys in Peru, Bohvia, and other intermediate 

 regions. 



A Culicine, Psorophora lynchi >aid by Dyar to be P. tibialis, R.D._, 

 is described from Buenos Aires. Five species of the genus Ciilex have 

 up to the present time been recorded from Buenos Aires and the 

 vicinity. Ochlerotatiis (C.) confirmatus, L\-nch, has been considered 

 synonymous with 0. (C.) scapular is, Rond., but the author doubts 

 this, as he considers it improbable that this species extends from the 

 north of Mexico to the Argentine Repubhc, as recorded by Neiva. _ 



Cidex bonariensis, sp. n., here described, was taken in San Isidro in 

 April and May, and it is thought that it will probably be found to be of 

 wider occurrence. C. {Choeroporpa) intrincatus, sp. n., is described from 

 a single male taken in San Isidro in May.
