Notes on habits. — The larvae are recorded as being found in 

 clear streamlets with grassy edges. The larvae in the Museum 

 show the frontal hairs to be quite simple. The palmate organs 

 have fifteen to sixteen lamellae, which have a short terminal 

 filament, one pair occurs on the thorax as well as those on the 

 abdomen. 



It has been proved to carry malaria in the Duars. 



The name listoni was used by Giles for a large variety of 

 culicifacies, so Liston's name cannot stand.
