gary. I have not yet seen this species from Britain. It is very distinct 
from any other European species, the narrow basal pale bands to the 
legs separating it, with its serrated $ ungues. It might be passed over 
amongst a lot of C. nemorosus Mei g. but the leg banding should at once 
separate it. The head has a very pronounced spot of flat black scales on 
each side. For literature, full description etc. vide : Kertész’s paper. 
9. Culex cantans Meig. 
Syst. Besehr. 1. 6. 6 (1818) Meigen; Monogr. Culicid. I. p. 401 (1901) and III. 
p. 179 (1903) Theobald; Bull. Soc. Ént. Ital. XXVIII. 258. 10 (1896) et XXXI. 
170. 3 (1899) Ficalbi; Állattan. Közi. III. p. 49 (1904) Kertész. 
This species occurs in the collection from various places in Hun¬ 
gary (vide : Dr. Kertesz’s paper on Hungarian Culicidæ). One d has 
the abdomen entirely covered with dense scattered creamy scales and 
another shows the larger mid unguis much shorter and more symmetri¬ 
cal than typical male cantans. 
For full details vide : Kertesz’s paper. I am inclined to think Culex 
annulipes Meig. a distinct species, but Kertész regards it as synonymous 
with C. cantans.
