INSECUTOR INSCITI^ MENSTRUUS 113 



"capricornii" (vol. iv, 877, 1917) and also figured (pi. 126, 

 fig. 438, 1913). 



The larvae were bred from tree-holes. 



Haemagogus (Haemagogus) albomaculatus Theobald. 



Haemagogus albomaculatus Theobald, Mon. Culic, iii, 308, 1903. 



Described from a single female with simple claws from Brit- 

 ish Guiana, probably from the Pomeroon River. In the mono- 

 graph, we sink regalis to this species, and record it from Cen- 

 tral America, Panama, and Trinidad. It will be necessary to 

 reverse this synonymy because regalis (Sonsonate, Salvador) 

 is one species, Panama specimens (Gatun, Canal Zone) are 

 another (argyromeris D. & L,.), and Trinidad specimens rep- 

 resent a third species {janthinomys Dyar). Fortunately 

 specimens are before me from British Guiana (near George- 

 town, taken by H. W. B. Moore) representing a fourth spe- 

 cies, and to these the name albomaculatus may be restricted. 

 It is possible that Theobald's type represents still another spe- 

 cies ; but this can probably never be established from the 

 female alone, and until that is done, the present restriction 

 will hold. 



Male hypopygium. Side piece conical, about three times as 

 long as wide ; basal area small, granular, without setse, but a 

 single hair basally ; a group of long hairs at extreme base, 

 arranged in a line ; inner area almost to the base with long 

 thin scales, mixed with stout setse, all straight ; apex without 

 a hair-tuft. Clasper slender, small, curved, the spine terminal 

 and about half as long as the clasper itself. Claspette mod- 

 erately slender, curved, with a seta at base, the basal half 

 minutely pilose ; strongly chitinized ; tip expanded, obliquely 

 truncate, the filament small, pointed, lying on the truncation 

 and projecting beyond its end. Tenth sternites stout, with 

 rounded recurved tips. 



The larva was not sent in by Mr. Moore.
