1914] Ludlow—A New Anopheline 129 
pupal stage. One did not attempt to pupate but sickened and 
died, the second formed a cell in late June and remained therein 
in an arched position for several days; it approached the form of a 
pupa, the larval skin softening considerably, and the imaginal eyes 
could be seen through this integument, but it perished without 
any ecdysis. 
A NEW ANOPHELINE.

The Anopheline to be described is an unusually brilliantly 
marked one, the very marked spotting of the legs and wings being 
at once noticeable. It probably lies nearest ludlowii but the wing 
markings are quite different, the palpal bands are all narrow, and 
the legs are very much more spotted than even the most distinctly 
marked specimen of ludlowii which I have seen. 
Myzomyia parangensis sp. nov. 
Q. Head brown covered with white and dark brown forked scales, the white 
ones on the vertex and spreading laterad about one-half the width of the eyes, the 
brown fork scales on the rest of the head except a long tuft of slender white scales 
projecting forward between the eyes; antenne brown, verticels and pubescence 
white, a few white scales on the proximal joints, basal joint brown with “frosty 
tomentum”’; palpi fairly heavily scaled, the scales outstanding, brown except a 
small white tip and narrow white bands at the base of the penultimate and at the 
base of the antipenultimate, the apical joint is very short; proboscis brown, labella 
light; clypeus brown; eyes brown. 
Thorax; prothoracic lobes dark brown with long, yellow bristles; mesothorax a 
soft yellow, covered with ‘frosty tomentum” and sparsely by light yellow to white 
fine hair-like scales, more apparent in a median line of them, and long white scales 
projecting over the nape, but not confined to the very middle portion. A brown 
median line widening at the caudal margin, and continued still more broadly on 
the scutellum; scutellum much as mesonotum; pleura very dark brown with lines 
of white “frosty tomentum”’; metanotum brown. 
Abdomen dark brown covered with golden brown hairs, and a few long, light 
spatulate scales on the apex of the eighth segment; the genitalia are also covered 
with long spatulate scales. 
Legs: cox and trochanters white; femora very markedly spotted or ringed in 
brown and white, there being no marked predominance of either color, the spots
