Groups IX, X. 



GKOUP IX. 



This group at present contains only one Indian species, viz., 

 aitkeni. It has unspotted wings and assumes a " culex-like " 

 attitude when at rest. For these reasons is very liable to be mis- 

 taken for a " culex." Details of its larva will be found under the 

 description of the mosquito in Part II. 



GROUP X. 



This group also contains a single mosquito A. culiciformis. It 

 has unspotted wings like the above, and is even more "culex-like" in 

 its attitude and appearance. Certain structural characters of this 

 mosquito, both in its adult and larval form, are so distinct and 

 different from any other " anopheles" as to be of undoubted generic 

 value. For details the reader is referred to the description in 

 Part II.
