Habitat. —Camp Roosevelt, Mt. Gretna, Pa. Taken August

This interesting species was sent by Capt. E. B. Whitemore, 
Asst.-Surg., U.S. Army, and, as will be seen from the descrip¬ 
tion, bears a closer resemblance to tropical Anojphelina than to 
those so far reported from the U.S., but as the group it most 
closely resembles has abdominal scales and rather broader wing- 
scales it cannot be referred to it.” 
The above is Miss Ludlow’s original description. From the 
specimen shown me it seems to be a typical Anopheles.
