near its base ; one small white spot on each branch of the second 
fork-cell and one at the base; three fair-sized white spots on the 
upper, and one large one on the lower branch of the fifth, and 
two on the stem; apex and base of the sixth white, and a 
broadish median white spot; fringe apparently all black; first 
sub-marginal cell longer and narrower than the second posterior 
cell, its base slightly nearer the apex of the wing than that of 
the second posterior ; supernumerary cross-vein half its length 
nearer the apex of the wing than the mid, the mid cross-vein 
about twice its own length distant from the posterior cross- 
vein; stem. of the first sub-marginal about two-thirds of the 
length of the cell; stem of the second posterior longer than the 
cell. Halteres with brown stem and fuscous knob. 
Length.—5°5 mm. 
Habitat—Mauritius (Grandpré), Man Newall (Marshall), 
and India (Stephens and Chistophers). 
Observations.—Described from a nearly perfect 9 sent by 
MM. Grandpré and Daruty. It is a very beautiful species; the 
markedly spotted palpi and legs will at once separate it from 
all known members of this genus. 
Specimens (Plate IV.) have been sent by Drs. Stephens, 
Christophers, and James of what is evidently this species, labelled 
Anopheles Jamesii, Theobald, and probably some of the larval 
characters described by them belong reaily to this species. A ? has 
also been received from Mashonaland, 
exactly similar to the Indian ones (a ¢@ ). 
The larval characters described by 
Christophers and Stephens for Jamesii, 
‘Theobald, are as follows: Frontal hairs 
4 show signs of branching, and the 
palmate hairs have short filaments 
like Stephensi, but it is most nearly 
related: by larval structures to macu- 
latus and Theobaldi.
