rent insect to Wiedemann's and it is doubtful if it can be placed 

 with it. 



CULICELSA ANNULIROSTRIS. Skuse (1889). 



Culex annulirostris. Skuse. 



Proc. Linn. Soc. N. S. Wales, p. 1737 (1889), Skuse; Mono. Culicid. I., 

 p. 365 (1901) and III., p. 162 (1903), Theobald. 



Dr. Bancroft has found that this species oviposits in " rafts." 



Culicelsa vigilax. Skuse (non Theobald) (1889). 

 Culex vigilax. Skuse (non Theobald). 

 Culex marinus. Theobald (1901). 



Proc. Linn. Soc. N. S. Wales, p. 1731 (1889), Skuse; Mono. Culicid. I., 

 p. 396 (1901) {marinus), and III., p. 178 (1903), Theobald. 



Dr. Bancroft writes me that this species oviposits singly. 



Both Dr. Bancroft and myself find that the species I took to 

 be Skuse's, vigilax, is not so and must be given a new name, 

 whilst the other closely related species I described as marinus is 

 the true vigilax. 



For the former species I propose the name pseudovigilax. 



Additional locality. — Johnstone River, N". Queensland (Dr. 

 Bancroft). 



Culicelsa pseudovigilax. nov. nom. 

 Culex vigilax. Theobald (non Skuse). 



Mono. Culicid. I., p. 395 (1901). 



The species I took to be vigilax is not so. I therefore propose 

 the above name as it is closely related. It seems to be rare, 

 whilst Skuse's species which it closely resembles is very common. 



Culicelsa alboannulata. Macquart (1850). 

 Culex alboannulatus. Macquart. 



Dipt. Exot., p. 10, 4th Supp., Macquart (1850) ; Proc. Linn. Soc. N. S. 

 Wales, p. 1732 (1889), Skuse; Mono. Culicid. I., p. 389 (1901), and III., 

 p. 175 (1903), Theobald. 



Dr. Bancroft writes me that this species oviposits singly. It 

 comes in this genus, not Culex proper.
