the lower surfaces, with white knee spots and a large sub-apical white 
patch on the femora, the tibae and first tarsal joints elaborately white- 
ringed, especially so on the mid legs.

Note.— This species was taken by Lieut.-General Liston, 
I.M.S., and was described by Colonel Giles, who has presented 
it to the Museum. 
It comes near A. Jamesii , Theobald, but can at once be told 
by having two instead of three of the hind tarsal joints all white, 
and the wings are darker, and the second long vein is entirely 
black. 
Genus CYCLOLEPPTERON. Theobald. 
(Journ. Trop. Med. iv. 14, p. 234, 1901.) 
The species referred to on page 205, vol. i., as Anopheles 
Grabhamii presents such marked differences in the wing scales 
to any of the true Anopheles that it is clearly sufficiently marked 
to separate as a distinct genus. 
The characters of the genus are as follows—Palpi long in 
both sexes, about as long as the proboscis; in the f the last 
two joints are swollen, forming a spatulate extremity, in the 9 
they are subulate. The venation is very similar to a typical 
Anopheles, but the wings have, in addition to typical Anopheles 
scales, patches of large jet black scales, more or less inflated, and 
with their free end of a circular outline—these patches giving the 
wing a markedly spotted appearance. The typical lanceolate 
scales are comparatively few in number. 
The larvae of C. Grabhamii. 
Dr. Grabham sends specimens of the larvae of this species 
and writes that, “ I observed two unusual Anopheles larvae in 
one of my breeding jars. These were isolated, and subsequently 
developed into A. Grabhamii. These larvae/ 7 he says, “ in their 
later stages are at once distinguished from those of A. argyrotarsis, 
sub sp. albipes, by having a continuous brilliant white band along 
the median dorsal line, extending from the respiratory stigmata 
forwards on to the thorax ; this character renders them most 
conspicuous when examined by reflected light on the surface of 
the water. The colour of the larvae is dark brown.
