This latter description is repeated in Theob. Mon. Culic, i, 214 

 & 2 , where the author adds, " I believe to be a new species. 

 It might, however, be a var. of A. funestus. " 



Practically an African species. 



Taken in dwelling-houses at Kumasi ; Ashanti, where Dr. 

 Chalmers found the larvae on the margin of the marsh surrounding 

 that place. -Abundant on the Gambian Coast, and at the Cape 

 (near Bathurst), the larva being found in rice swamps. It occurs 

 in November in Lagos and in December in Gambia, and Giles re- 

 ports it from British Central Africa at an altitude of 5,600 feet. 



It figures in this Catalogue only on the authority of Banks, 

 although it has been doubtfully recorded from the Philippines 

 before.
