A Monograph of Culicidae. 
perfect, but with slightly rubbed thorax. A small obscure Aedine, j 
but at once told when examined microscopically by the complex 
male genitalia and the long lateral scales along one side of the 
fifth vein. 
Types in the Indian Museum, Calcutta. 
Genus SABETHOIDES. Theobald (1903). 
Mono. Gulicid. III., 828 (1903) ; IV., 617 (1907). 
Three species are described in this genus. They tabulate 
as follows :— 
Abdomen metallic green, mauve, purple, blue, 
white and yellow, with white basal lateral 
spots; venter yellow; mid legs with 
venter of 1st to 3rd tarsal segments 
silvery-white; head green ... confusus. Theobald. 
Similar, but dorsum of abdomen with no 
white-scaled lateral areas ... undosus . Coquillett. 
Legs without bands or white areas; abdomen 
purple, with coppery-red patches, lateral 
areas silvery-white ; head purple ... purpureus. Theobald. 
Dyar and Knab describe a species identicus, which they say is 
the same as Coquillett’s undosus , but the larvae differ. If the 
larvae are really different and not stages of one species, then a 
detailed examination of the adults will probably reveal marked 
distinctive characters. Another species, canfieldi, described by 
Dyar and Knab as a Sabethes is certainly not in that genus and 
may come here.
