SUMMARY OF DESCRIBED SPECIES. 
Total previously described good species, 164. 
Species recognised and redescribed, 122. 
Other descriptions, probably invalid owing to their shortness 
and the apparent absence of types, 25. 
Described as distinct, but found to be synonymous with other 
species, 80. 
New species described, 136. 
Therefore the number identified and redescribed and the new 
species described in these volumes is 258. If to this we 
add the 42 species not yet identified, we get the total known 
number of Culicidae —300. I have still on hand a large amount 
of material containing roughly some 50 fresh species, received 
since this work has been in the press. The number of species 
will, no doubt, be considerably augmented when we receive 
collections from more uninhabited parts. Megarhinus and 
Sabethes, &c., probably occur in greater abundance in forests, 
and hence few have been received. The majority of species here 
described are those found in and around towns, or are known 
pests to travellers and traders. I 
t Numerous fresh species are described iu the Appendix to Yol. II.
