PHILIPPINE ISLANDS 
Fig. 1. Outline map of the Philippine Islands. 
tion records from these islands include the 
name of the province. 
It will be noted that this work, in con- 
formity with American usage, omits the 
diaeresis from the word Aedes. This policy has 
been followed on the basis that since Meigen 
(1818:13) did not use the diaeresis in his 
original citation of the name it is not man- 
datory for subsequent users to employ it. Nor 
is it mandatory to follow a subsequent cor- 
rection established on the basis of a supposed 
lapsus calami. It is true that in the index of the 
book containing the original reference to 
Aedes (p. 325) the first two letters are written 
as a diphthong, but it is quite open to ques- 
tion that Meigen prepared the index. Follow- 
ing the policy described above, the diaeresis 
has also been omitted from Aedimorphus, but 
has been used with Cancraedes.
