Segment III : A a little longer, rounded; B fine, 
six- to seven-branched, one-half the length of 
the segment; C one-third length of segment, 
four- to six-branched; d fairly long, strong; 1 
fairly long, bifurcate; 2 medium, four- to five- 
branched; 3 represented only by its socket; 4 
fairly long, five- to six-branched. 
Segment IV: A a little longer, apex rounded; B 
two-thirds length of segment, four- to five- 
branched; C about as long as the segment, two- 
to three-branched; c' medium, four- to five- 
branched; 1 long, simple; 2 medium, four- to 
five-branched; 3 represented only by its socket; 
4 fairly long, four- to six-branched.

pect of left half of abdomen of male (after Senevet, 
1931). 
Segment V: A longer, less than one-third of seg- 
ment, apex not very pointed; B about two-thirds 
length of segment, two- to three-branched; c 
simple, strong, slightly longer than segment; c' 
fairly long, simple; 1 long, simple; 2 medium, 
three- to four-branched; 3 represented only by 
its socket; 4 fairly long, three- to four-branched. 
Segment VI: A longer, about one-half the length 
of segment; B about same as B-V; C simple, 
strong, longer than segment; C / long, simple, 
half as long as C; 1 fairly long, bifurcate; 2 
fairly long, simple; 3 absent; 4 long, three- to 
four-branched. 
Segment VII: A slightly longer than one-half of 
segment VIII; B about same as B-VI; c simple, 
strong, slightly longer than segment; 1 medium, 
simple; 2 fairly long, simple; 4 long, five- 
branched. 
Segment VIII: A with fairly long central stalk, 
having two or three fairly strong branches on 
each side, and terminating in two long and 
strong branches, total length about one-fourth 
of the paddle; A f slightly longer than A, simple. 
Paddle: Little elongated; external margin bare 
on its anterior one-fourth, presenting on the 
following one-fourth a few small triangular, 
short, pointed spines in two to four rows; 
these spines are elongated on the next one- 
fourth, and the margin becomes almost ser- 
rated; these spines are curved to the rear on 
the posterior one-fourth and abruptly replaced 
by hairs which are much longer, but which 
decrease rapidly and do not reach the terminal 
seta; terminal seta long, simple and hooked; 
accessory seta small, simple, not reaching apex 
of paddle. 
Anopheles ( Myzomyia ) punctulatus Donitz

Fig. 8 
The pupa of this species was partially de- 
scribed and figured by Belkin, Knight, and Roze- 
boom (1945: 253) from the Solomon Islands, 
and by Rozeboom and Knight (1946: 108), 
who also compared it in many details with A. 
far anti and A. koliensis from the Solomon 
Islands and New Guinea.
