  all 
  belong, 
  I 
  believe, 
  to 
  this 
  species. 
  The 
  dark 
  colour 
  of 
  the 
  specimens 
  is 
  an 
  artifact 
  

   produced 
  by 
  an 
  accumulation 
  of 
  fine 
  pulverulent 
  dirt.

  Phlebotomus 
  papatasii 
  (Scop.). 
  

  

  Males 
  with 
  abnormal 
  genitalia. 
  I 
  have 
  examined 
  two 
  examples 
  : 
  one 
  from 
  Rawul 
  

   Pindi 
  (ex 
  coll. 
  Dr. 
  J. 
  H. 
  Ashworth), 
  the 
  other 
  from 
  Malta 
  (Capt. 
  P. 
  J. 
  Marett). 
  In 
  

   both 
  of 
  these 
  examples 
  a 
  supernumerary 
  spine 
  was 
  present 
  on 
  one 
  of 
  the 
  inferior 
  

   claspers. 
  In 
  typical 
  individuals 
  of 
  this 
  species 
  only 
  two 
  flattened, 
  spathulif 
  orm 
  spines 
  

   arise 
  from 
  the 
  distal 
  extremity 
  of 
  the 
  inferior 
  claspers 
  ; 
  so 
  that 
  examples 
  with 
  such 
  

   supernumerary 
  appendages 
  as 
  those 
  herein 
  recorded 
  can 
  only 
  be 
  regarded 
  as 
  abnor- 
  

   malities.
