the subcosta and costa which involves the first long vein, and one neat 
. apex the broadest of all which also involves the first vein. All the rest 
the veins brown-scaled with small yellow spots as follows, two on 
. stem of second vein, three on its upper branch and two on its lower, six 
'the thud vein, one on the stem of fourth where the cross vein meets 
and one at the base of the fork cell, with three on its upper branch, and one 
its lower, four well-marked ones on the stem of fifth vein, three on eac 1 o 1 s> 
anches and three on the sixth vein ; apical fringe golden and a spot of golden 
nge scales where the branches of the second fork cell and the upper branch 
the fifth vein join it; posterior cross vein about four times its own lengt 
>m median. Coxae, brown ; femora and tibiae, clad with brown scales and 
anerous golden scales arranged as spots ; fore metatarsus and tarsal joints 
-.rely clad with golden scales, the brown forming small bands in the centre 
each; mid metatarsus, brown with golden spots, tarsal joints, brown wit 
irrow apical bands; hind tibia;, each with apex enlarged and the apical 
th clad with creamy scales, which, with a similar band on the base of the 
etatarsus, forms a conspicuous creamy band at this articulation , tarsal 
ints, brown with well-marked apical bands. 
Abdomen.— Black, with numerous pale golden hairs, on the last segment 
a dense tuft of golden-brown hairs and scales mixed. 
Male .—Plumes of antennae, tawny. Palpi, with a creamy ring at the 
int re of first apparent joint and a narrow golden-brown ring at the apex, 
.st two joints enlarged, clad with golden-brown sea es and a narrow 
isal ring of dark brown scales. Fore ungues, unequal, the large unguis, 
niserrate, hind and mid, equal and simple. 
Occurrence .—Described from a large series bred from larvae taken from 
r ater in open bamboos and pools in jungle. 
Remarks .—So far as I know this mosquito is entirely s yivan. It is 
ne of the largest and most handsome of the Malayan A nophehna, and can be 
t once distinguished by the tibio-metatarsal articulation on the hind leg. 
'he male is here described for the first time. 
Genus 4.— Myzorhyncus.- Theobald. 
Head, with a few narrow-curved scales on the vertex and numerous 
ipright scales elsewhere. Prothoracic lobes, with dense apical tufts ot 
lavate upright scales. Mesonotum, with upright c |avate scales on t e 
houlders and pale hairs on the dorsum. Scutellum, with hairs. Abdomen 
vith hairs, and generally a ventral tuft of long clayate scales on the eighth 
egment. Genital lobes in the male clad with scales, in the female genera y 
:lad with hairs only. Wings with not more than two costal spots. Wing 
■cales, lanceolate or fusiform. _ . 
Remarks .—Six species of the genus are said to occur in the Malay 
J eninsula. Sinensis, Vanus, Annularis, Barbirostris, Albotaematus and 
Umbrosus. I have included specimens with the characters of Sinensis and 
Vanus under the one name, Sinensis, and have added two new spec.es, 
Peditteniata and Separatus. The species fall into two natural groups, 
hose with banded palpi, which includes Sinensis and Peditaemata, and 
hose with unbanded palpi, M. Barbirostris, Albotemata and Umbrosus. 
1 have no specimen which would correspond to the description gi\ en ot 
Annularis.
