Notes .—There is no doubt that Arribalzaga’s confirmatus is 
the same as Rondani’s scapularis. 
Miss Ludlow writes :—- 
“ Another instance of small variation occurs in the Culex 
confirmatus , Arribalzaga, sent me by Lieut. R. Boyd Miller, 
Asst. Surg. U.S.A., from Bort Screven, Tyhee Island, Ga., which 
agrees perfectly with the description given by Theobald (Mono¬ 
graph, Yol. II., p. 42), except that the femora are white nearly 
to the apex dorsally as well as ventrally, and all the ungues are 
uniserrate; the latter is, of course, the important variation.” The 
hind ungues of all L. scapularis I have seen have teeth, and I 
cannot help thinking that some other species is referred to as one 
never sees any variations in the ungues.
