1818. 
Anopheles occidentalis Dyar and Knap, Proc. Biol. Soc. Wash., vol. 19, p.

Anopheles lewisi LupLow, Psyche, vol. 27, p. 74, 1920. 
Anopheles selengensis LupLtow, Psyche, vol. 27, p. 77, 1920. 
A medium-sized blackish Anopheles with black-spotted wings. 
Mesonotum elongate, hairy, broadly whitish in the integument in 
the middle, dark brown on the side. Abdomen with light hairs, 
brown, the apices of the segments darker in the integument. Legs 
long and slender, blackish; tips of femora and tibiae whitish. Wings 
with the scales black, forming four dark spots by being thickly 
placed as follows: base of second vein in the cell; on the cross veins 
and forks of second and fourth veins. Tip of the wing with a 
brassy reflection in the fringe. 
The larvae are surface feeders in all sorts of water puddles, pre- 
ferring permanent water. The habits of the males have not been 
observed in America. The difference between this and quadrimacu- 
latus is slight in coloration, but the male genitalia show good charac- 
ters. This form has lately been shown to be identical with 
maculipennis Meigen, of Europe. It is evidently a good malaria 
carrier, although there is no record of experiments carried on with 
this form under the American name occidentalis.
