M AT. ART A 
rarity as far east as the Mississippi River 
from Louisiana to Tennessee. It is re¬ 
ported as being very abundant in some of 
the river valleys in New Mexico, western 
Texas, and California. South of the 
United States it occurs through Central 
and South America into Argentina, and in 
some of the islands of the Caribbean. 
As mentioned in the preceding paper, 
Aitken (1941) believes that the type form 
of this species does not occur in California, 
being represented there by the subspecies 
franciscanus and its variety boydi. 
Tennessee: Reported for the State by Dyar 
(1928). Memphis (Aitken 1941).

California: Occurs southward along the coast 
from Sonoma County and the central valleys from 
Red Bluff, Tehama County, into the foothills of 
the San Joaquin, and the most abundant anophe- 
line south of the Tehachapi (Freeborn 1926). 
Various localities (Herms 1917, and others, quoted 
by Kumm 1929). Only two counties in the State 
(Mono and Imperial) where the species has not 
been recorded (Aitken 1939). Most northern 
records at Wonderland Park, Del Norte County, 
and Yreka, Siskiyou County; form with delicate 
leaflets on the mesosome ( franciscanus) of wide 
occurrence in the State; those without leaflets 
(f boydi ) recorded in several counties and both 
forms occasionally found in the same locality (Ait¬ 
ken 1941). 
Oregon : ( ?) Corvallis and Forest Grove (Cole and 
Lovett 1921, quoted by Aitken 1941; records this 
far north considered doubtful by Freeborn 1926). 
Anopheles punctipennis Say 
As pointed out by Matheson (1929), 
Anopheles punctipennis Say has the great¬ 
est range of any nearctic anopheline. It 
occurs in southern Canada and throughout 
the Eastern, Central, and Southern States 
to New Mexico, and from the Pacific States 
into western Canada. Except for one rec¬ 
ord in western Montana, however, it seems 
not to have been reported from the Rocky 
Mountain region between Canada and New 
Mexico. Its range extends into the table¬ 
lands of Mexico. In the Eastern and 
Southern States its breeding habitats are 
usually more restricted than those of quad- 
rimaculatus. Locality records (except the 
southeastern states) are as follows:

K.). Ontario: Ottawa (H. D. and K.). Lake
