CULICID^: THE ANOPHELES MOSQUITOES 81 



Anopheles {Myzomyid) longipalpis, Theobald. From British 

 Central Africa. Is described from a single female and. is not 

 markedly different from the preceding. 



Anopheles {Myzomid) pyretoporhoroides, Theobald. Palpi 

 with three white bands and white tip. Legs brown ; all the 

 femora, tibiae, and ist tarsal segments speckled. Wings 

 dark ; costa with five black spots, of which the first is small 

 and the third is large. Pretoria. 



Anopheles {^Myzomyid) nili, Theobald. Palpi and proboscis 

 brown with pale tip. Legs brown, not banded. Wings dark ; 

 costa with three small yellowish spots. Nile provinces. 



Anopheles {Myzoniyia) rhodesiensis^ Theobald. Palpi with 

 two or three yellowish rings and dark tip. Legs dark brown, 

 not banded. Wings dark ; costa with three small white 

 spots and a yellow spot at the tip of the wing ; wing-fringe 

 not spotted. Uganda, Congo Free State, South Africa. 



Anopheles {? Myzomyid) impunctus, Donitz. Described 

 from a single specimen from Lower Egypt. 



Anopheles {My zomyid) pallidopalpis, Theobald { = Feltinella 

 pallidopalpis, Theobald). Only the male known. In the 

 palps the tips of the first 2 segments and the greater part 

 of the last 2 segments are golden-yellow. Legs brown, not 

 banded. Wings with few spots in the field, none in the 

 fringe ; costa with four small yellowish spots. 



Anopheles ,(" Pyretophorus ") costalis, Loew. Palpi with two 

 narrow white bands and white tip ; occasionally the white tip 

 may be subdivided so as to form an extra white band. 

 Femora and tibiae (and sometimes to some extent the first 

 of the tarsal segments) much brindled or speckled with yellow. 

 The joints between the tarsal segments are yellow, this being 

 most marked in the front legs. Costa black, with five or 

 six small, irregular, yellow spots. Common in Tropical 

 Africa, also in Madagascar and Mauritius. 



Some specimens of this species have the scales of the 

 scutum fairly broad, and this and the speckling of the legs 

 may give a suggestion of Nyssorhynchus ; but the slender 

 palpi are sufficient to distinguish the present species. 



Anopheles (^'Pyretophorus'') ardensis, Theobald. From 

 Natal. Is only a variety of costalis ; the ist tarsal segment 

 is as much speckled as the tibia' and femora.
