Culiseta silvestris minnesotae. a—hypopygium of the male (after Barr, 1957); b—head; c- the 4th-instar larva (after Price, 1958). -terminal end of scales at the base. Apical tarsal rings only on the proximal segments. Abdominal tergites with proximal and distal bands articulated with each other through narrow lateral bands of light scales (Fig. 21, 15). Hypopygium shown in Fig. 84. Spines absent on the lobes of the 8th tergite. On each lobe of the 9th tergite, 7-11 setae (average 9). On each lobe of the gonofurca 3-5(more often4) slighdybent heavy setae. The form of the phallus approaches a rectangular parallel tubal struc- ture with a heavily sclerotized transverse distal margin. Fourth instar larva. Antennae shorter than the head; antennal tuft comparatively poorly branched (16-31, average 22 branches). The me- dian frontal seta moderately long; the ratio of its length to that of the head is 115-125% (average ). The comb usually with not less than 80 scales (65-90, average 75). The median seta posterior.
