of the cell; posterior cross-vein three times its own length from media: 
Pleurae with dark brown areas and patches of white scales. Coxae of ? 
legs and femora of hind legs silvery, femora of fore and mid legs dark bro^ 
with a pale band at the apex ; tibiae dark brown with pale apical band' 
metatarsi and first two tarsal joints of all legs with pale basal band 
Ungues equal and simple. 
Abdomen, dark brown above with pale yellow basal bands slight 
convex on their free edges ; the band on the second segment is very narro 
at the sides but projects in the middle. 
There are well marked white lateral spots to all segments. On the venti 
is a central line of white scales in its whole length and on either side tl 
segments are white scaled with a very narrow band of brown scales ; 
their apices. 
Male. —“Head dark brown, with pale scales and whitish flat ones ; 
the sides ; antennae banded black and white with umber-brown plume' 
palpi banded black and yellow the second joint apically yellow, the thii 
yellow in the middle, the fourth and fifth narrowly yellow at the base, hai: 
brown. Abdomen narrow with basal bands of whitish scales spreading 01 
laterally on the last few segments. Ungues of the fore legs unequal, bol 
with a single tooth towards the base that of the smaller one minute a coml 
like process between; those of the mid similar but more unequal. Win' 
with first sub-marginal cell longer and narrower than the second posterk 
its stem less than half the length of the cell; posterior cross-vein near] 
twice its length distant from mid. Length 3-4 mm.” 
The above is from Theobald’s “ Monograph ” as I have no male.

Remarks. —Though described in Theobald’s “Monograph” I have n 
described the female here in order to make the book as complete as possibl 
selecting Theobald’s description for Malayan mosquitoes only where I hav 
no type, e.g., the male of this species. This mosquito resemble C. Microai 
nulatus but the wing scales on the latter species are much broader than th 
same scales on C. Vishnui and the band on the proboscis is more central i| 
C. Microannulatus.
