Genus Anopheles. 
Observations. — Described from a single broken specimen. 
Sufficient remains, however, to show a very marked and peculiar 
species, which can at once be told from any other Anopheles by 
the large dark scales on the wings. This species probably will 
form a new genus when sufficient material comes to hand. The 
remains have been mounted on slide No. 27. 
(Signs on label, Kgtn. 1. xi. 99. ffi.) Since the above 
was in type I have received a perfect £ and 2 (vide Appendix). 
The following species have not been received, nor have I been 
able to see examples of them ; references and descriptions are 
therefore added from the original sources : — 
1. A. stigmaticus. Skuse. Australia. 
2. A. pictus. Loew. Asia Minor. 
3. A. annulipalpis. Arribalzaga. Argentine. 
4. A. albimanus. Wied. Hayti and Porto Rico. 
The two following, if distinct, are not identifyable, except 
from the original types :— 
(1)5. A. annulimanus. V. d. Wulp. North America, 
(1)6. A. ferruginosus. Wied. New Orleans. 
37. Anopheles stigmaticus. Skuse. 
(Proc. Linn. Soc. N. S. Wales, iii. p. 1759 (18S9).)
