outside, pale on the inside. Dr. J. B. Cleland has found the 

 larvsB of this species living at a height of 6000 feet on 

 Mt. Kosciusko, in a shallow pool fed by a snowdrift but 

 warmed by the sun.

Walker^s type is in poor condition, but quite recognizable 

 as being the same as Strickland''s C. tasmaniensis. Tiie 

 species is quite distinct from that recognized by Theobald as 

 C. australis.

The specimens Theobald records from New Guinea probably 

 represent another species ; males of this species from Queens- 

 land have the claws of the middle legs unequal.

 pubescent.^^ Theobald erroneously regards it as synonymous 

 with Culex fatigans. I have not seen it.

Unidentified Species. 



The following probably belong to the genus Ochlerolatus, 

 but the descriptions are inadequate for recognition : —

 There is no type, and nothing answering to Theobald's
