Wing (fig. 7): the veins densely covered with rather broad, 
elongated oval, brown scales; besides there are a few scattered 
yellow scales, especially along the costal region; no long thin 
lateral scales. First submarginal cell almost as long as the second 
posterior cell; stem of the former about half the length of the cell; 
stem of the latter also about the same relative length; posterior 
Cross-vein only about once its own length apart from mid cross- 
vein; halteres pale Ses Dnn: the length of the above named 
8. 
Figs. 7 and 8. Right wing of Mansonia sp. and Culex sp. "). 
Cells in relation to the stems varying a little in the three spec- 
imens. Length of the wing 8—10 mm. 
The Danish specimens differ from M. Ricardii Ficalbi in the 
legs being not so conspicuously banded; especially the hind-legs 
lack the broad band on metatarsus. The main difference is to be 
found in the wings. The first submarginal cell is scarcely longer 
than the second posterior cell, and their petiole does not, as is 
Stated with regard to M. Ricardii, reach %/3 of the length of the 
Cell, but is less than half as long as the latter; finally, in the 
Danish specimens the posterior cross-vein is only separated from 
the mid cross-vein by a space a little more than its own length, 
Whereas in M. Ricardii the distance is more than two and a half 
times the length of the former. In this regard the Danish specimens 
akrpe more with the North-American M. perfurbans.

present the Mansonia, unless otherwise specified.
