omyia vanduzeei, W. mitchellti, Mansonia titillans, and Deinocerites 
cancer) are fairly common in southern Florida, but have not been 
found north of about latitude 29°. Eleven species are recorded for 
Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi which have not yet been found 
in Florida; some of them probably will be found there. The Louisi- 
ana records contribute 1 more species, Arkansas 3, and North Carolina 
and Tennessee 1. The last 5 species, from the border States, are 
incursions from the western and northern faunas, and further col- 
lecting in these States, particularly near their western and north- 
western boundaries, will probably increase the known number of 
such incursions. However, in the northeastern part of the region 
at least, the Virginia records contain only 1 species (Aedes cantator 
Coq.) not found in the list. The questionable record for A. dorsalis 
in Louisiana is discussed in the text. The reported occurrences of 
Culex coronator in New Orleans (15) and of Aedes nigromaculis in 
Louisiana (57) are believed to have been based on misidentifications, 
and the species are not included in the list. 
LITERATURE ON MOSQUITOES 
The literature on mosquitoes, especially that dealing with bionomics, 
methods of control, and disease transmission, has become exceedingly 
large, and the articles have appeared in widely scattered publications. 
General reference works covering the mosquitoes of the United States 
are, however, comparatively limited. 
Of the references that include the southeastern species, the large 
monograph by Howard, Dyar, and Knab (85) contains detailed de- 
scriptions, a large number of illustrations, and much information on 
mosquito bionomics and distribution. The systematic part of this 
work was later extensively revised and condensed by Dyar (57). A 
shorter article by Dyar (50) is also available, but the names of many 
of the species given therein have since been revised. 
Matheson’s handbook (1/5) is the most recent general reference 
work on North American mosquitoes. It contains brief descriptions 
of the genera and species and keys for their identification, numerous 
anatomical illustrations, an explanation of the taxonomic terms in 
use, and condensed accounts of mosquito biology, the relation of 
mosquitoes to human welfare, the problem of mosquito reduction, 
and instructions for their collection and study. Several of the 
southern species are not included in this work, and some of the 
descriptive matter and keys now need revision. 
Edwards (53) has prepared a valuable catalog of the mosquitoes 
of the world, which contains, in addition to the list of species and 
synonyms, keys to the subfamilies, tribes, genera, and subgenera, 
and general information on distribution of the species. 
The publications of the New Jersey Agricultural Experiment Sta- 
tion on the mosquitoes of that State (69, 139) have been utilized by 
southern workers, as they contain illustrations of a number of the 
species that occur in the South, as well as detailed information on 
mosquito bionomics and control. Komp (105) has published a guide 
to the identification of common mosquitoes in the Southeastern States. 
Tables for the identification of anopheline larvae have been prepared 
by Bradley (34) and King and Bradley (99).
