A medium-sized black mosquito. Mesonotum dull olivaceous yel- 
_ low when fresh, fading to mossy whitish; lines distinct, narrow, 
approximate, median lines normally present, the sides stripes more 
often obsolete. Abdomen black, the basal segmental white bands 
narrowed centrally or obsolete dorsally, widened at the sides; venter 
pale, with dark apical segmental bands. Legs black, the femora pale 
below; knee spots white. Wing scales narrow, all dark. 
The winter is passed in the egg stage. The larvae develop in 
early ground pools, more especially muddy pools along streams and 
lakes. They are somewhat late in development, being among the last 
of the forest species to be found as larvae. The species frequents 
high altitudes. The males swarm after sunset in openings of the 
forest or over willows. In the far north, in June, when it is light 
practically all night, the swarms may be seen as early as 4 o’clock in 
the afternoon when the sun passes behind a temporary cloud. 
Distribution—Alaska and the Yukon, down the Rocky Mountains 
to Colorado. Alps of Europe.
