They are usually divided in Culex proper and in certain species there appear to be more than the normal ntmiber of organs on account of this peculiarity. This tendency is well illustrated in Culex annul io- r i s Theo., C. c o n - color Rob. & Desv. and C. tigripes Grand. This process seems to have gone farther than in our native species, so that without the evidence afforded by these ex- otic forms it would be difficult to pro- perly homologize the parts. Th

This process seems to have gone farther than in our native species, so that without the evidence afforded by these ex- otic forms it would be difficult to pro- perly homologize the parts. The -unci, as we have identified them, consist of a pair of processes on the ventral margin and present considerable variations in struc- ture. These organs are readilv seen in most of the Culicinae, while.
