in balsam and the wings are imperfect. The specimen wa$ sent 
by Tsuzuki. I cannot place it generically from this species.

The type of this species I placed in the British Museum 
collection as far as I can remember. It is not there now* 
however. 
The following have been described by Dyar and Knab :— 
Anopheles occidentalis. Dyar and Knab (1906). 
Proc. Biol. Soc. Wash. XIX., 159 (1906). 
“ Thorax with a broad dorsal pale lilaceous band, cut by three 
narrow brown stripes ; a broad lateral brown band; pleura pale, with 
three brown stripes ; abdomen, legs and palpi dark brown. Wings 
with the scales of the veins forming four black spots as in A. quadri- 
maculatus , but rather more rounded and contrasted. 
118 specimens, California (McCraken); San Diego (Dyar and 
Caudell); Oregon (Currie), etc.” 
Probably an Anopheles, as one is led to believe it is near 
maculipennis or quadrimaculatus . The description is quite 
inadequate.—P. V. T. 
Anopheles atropos. Dyar and Knab (1906). 
Proc. Biol. Soc. Wash. XIX., 160 (1906). 
“ Deep black; thorax obscurely lined with violaceous, especially 
posteriorly. Head, abdomen and legs black, no markings on the 
pleurae. Wing scales outstanding, uniform not forming spots, though 
a little thicker at the usual points indicating the spottings. 
Allied to A. quadrimaculatus say, but rather smaller and deep 
black, not brown, the abdomen withojit traces of the lighter bandings. 
Seven specimens, Florida (Byrd).”
