Abstract

The following is a summary of the conclusions arrived at in the foregoing paper:— (1) the species sinensis, barbirostris, umbrosus, albotaeniatus and asiatica have been considered valid; (2) the species vanus, annularis, minutus, paeditaeniatus and separatus have been rejected as invalid; (3) certain new characters of the valid species have been noticed; (4) the descriptions of the species have been revised; (5) the genus Patagiamyia has been rejected, as also the genus Lophoscelomyia, both having been included in the genus Myzorhynchus; (6) it is suggested that the Myzorhynchus group forms a series sufficiently distinct from other Anophelines to make it advisable to give it a separate generic title.
