Notes .—Banks recording this species from Manila mentions 
that the Philippine species differ from the type by the presence 
in the 9 of two parallel, sub-median orange-golden striae on the 
mesothorax for its entire length. In the $ these stripes are 
from about the middle to the posterior margin only. He also 
refers to the male antennal plumes being greyish-brown. 
“ This mosquito has the habit of constantly moving its hind 
legs up and down over the back while at rest upon the very low 
shrubbery and grass where it delights to hide. It settles and 
bites readily, and also bites when confined in vials.” (Banks.) 
Its distribution in the Philippines is gradually being notified 
from wider and wider localities.
