the nearer the base of the wing ; posterior cross-vein longer than 
the mid, rather more than its own length distant from it. 
Length. —2 * 8 mm. 
Habitat. —Calcutta ; Sylhet, Assam (Major Hall). 
Time of capture. —30. vii. and 3. and 4. viii. 07 (N. Annan- 
dale); 27. xi. 04 (Major Hall). 
Observations. —One J and one $. The $ was described 
from Sylhet, Assam (Records Indian Museum, Yol. II., p. 301, 08). 
In the description of the proboscis it reads as if it were long and 
thin as in Culex. This is not so; it is very swollen apically, 
almost club-shaped in some views, with a long thin stem. The 
ungues of the fore legs of the male seem to be simple and are 
unequal and curved ; the mid appear to be equal and simple and 
the hind ones very small. 
The types have been returned to the Indian Museum, Calcutta, 
and without dissection the £ ungues cannot be made out.
