This peculiar mosquito merits anatomical study. Its general characters 

 are those of C'tile.r. The silver marking and wing squamation suggest 

 Uranotatnia. while the genitalia appear to be unique. I am at present 

 working on the anatomy of Culicid genitalia and shall leave further discus- 

 sion of this species until moi'c careful study has been made. 



Kerteszia, mcgregori, sp. iiov. 



S, length 6 millimeters; length of wing 3.75 millimeters; length of 

 proboscis 2.5 millimeters; general color ocher and grey; antennae golden 

 at tips, brown at bases, legs mottled yellow and brown ; wings with brown 

 scales and six white spots on costal vein; cilia all white, except at apex 

 of wing where there is a tinge of yellow. Hind legs with last three joints 

 of tarsi and apex of preceding, pure white. 



Head clothed witli narrow, cream-colored, appressed scales interpersed 

 with erect, cream-colored forked scales over the entire occiput and front, 

 except a narrow lino around and between the eyes ; two dark brown 

 bristles project cephalad between eyes and a pair curves over each eye 

 dorsolaterally. Eyes bronze. Antenna? longer than palpi by length of 

 last antennal segment ; clothed with brown hairs basally and golden ones 

 apically. First to sixth antennal seginents with white scales on their 

 inner sides; apical and pemtltimate segments with fine golden hairs and 

 a small whorl of bristles at the bases of the former. Clypeus bare, brown; 

 palpi five-sevenths length of proboscis ; clothed with brown scales except : 

 base and apex of each segment narrowly, and apical half of apical seg- 

 ment somewhat broadly, white-scaled ; a tuft of three brown bristle 

 springs fi'om the points on the apical segment where tin:' white apical 

 sealing ends. Proboscis darkly brown-scaled with a broad band of white 

 near the apex and another narrow one at the middle. Apical segment of 

 proboscis light brown. 



Squamation of jjrothoracic lobes similar in form and color to that of 

 occiput.
