Genus Aedes. 
235 
This was described by Gimmerthal from Russia, but until I 
see some Russian specimens I cannot say if it is synonymous 
with Ae. cinereus or a distinct species. 
The 9 Ae. cinereus has 2-jointed palpi and looks much like 
a Culex. The 5 bites viciously. 
6. Aedes perturbans. Williston. 
(?) Wyeomyia Grayii, mihi. 
(Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond. (1896), p. 271.) 
“ d 1 and ? . Head black; antennae brown; plumosity of the male 
long, abundant and black; terminal joint as long as the seven or eight 
preceding it together, and clothed with short hair; in the female the 
joints are more slender, and the terminal one is not longer than the two 
preceding it taken together, the verticils of moderate length. Proboscis 
black, as long as the abdomen; palpi brown. Thorax yellow, the 
mesonotum a little darker and clothed with brown squamulae. Abdomen 
//. 
Head of Aedes per turbans, Will, (after Williston). 
yellowish, brownish-yellow or brown, the terminal segments and the 
liypophygium brown or blackish; clothed above with brown squamulae. 
Legs brown or blackish, the femora for the most part yellow, and with a 
purplish or greyish reflection in some lights; in some specimens the 
tibiae are largely yellowish beneath the tomentum. Veins of the wings 
uniformly dark brown, squamulate. 
Length. —4-5 mm. 
Eight specimens. 
Habitat. —St. Vincent.” 
Note. —I rather fancy this may be my Wyeomyia Grayii. 
The description is not detailed enough to be certain, however, so 
I retain it as an Aedes until I see the type. 
7. Aedes Pembaensis. n. sp. 
Thorax blackish-brown, with two pale stripes on the front 
of the mesonotum, covered with spindle-shaped coppery-brown 
scales.
