ACKNOWLEDGMENTS 



We are indebted to many persons in the mosquito 

 abatement districts of Illinois and to Mr. Harvey Domi- 

 nic of the Illinois State Department of Health for mak- 

 ing available to us large numbers of Illinois records of 

 mosquitoes. We wish to express our appreciation to 

 Mrs. Alice Ann Prickett for a great deal of assistance 

 in adding new illustrations and much work in assembling 

 the plates and to reiterate our gratitude to Dr. Kathryn 

 M. Sommerman for the large number of original draw- 

 ings, reproduced here, that she made for the earlier 

 Illinois report. We acknowledge with thanks the use of 

 various illustrations used with the permission of the 

 original authors, as indicated under specific illustrations. 

 Finally we are indebted to Mrs. Bess White and Mrs. 

 Bernice Sweeney of the Illinois Natural History Survey 

 for much labor in typing and checking the manuscript, 

 and to Survey Technical Editor James S. Ayars and his 

 staff for the many editorial chores they performed.
