Genitalia, male. Basal clasp segment moderately stout, roimding gradually to a somewhat acute apex. Terminal clasp segment enlarged at base, strongly curved at apical third and bearing a short, stout terminal spine. Claspette a sub- apical group consisting of two very stout, chitinous spines with strongly curved acute tips, a more slender one close beside them, and slightly removed another small group of about six spines and a spatu- late organ, the tip of the latter appear- ing unusually acute. Harpes nearly divided, the main branch stout, strongly curved and with a'thick apical tuft of stout, chitinous spines. Minor limb strongly curved, sickle-shaped and with an acute apex. Harpagones short, stout, terminating in a series of strongly curved, stout, chitinous spines. Unci slender, probably approximate, gradu- ally rounding to an acute apex. Seta- ceous lobes weakly developed, each with about six slender, curved setae. Culex tigripes Grand. Genitalia, male. Basal clasp segment rather expanded at the extreme base, moderate, tapering gradually to a narrowly roimded apex. Terminal clasp segment stout, taper- ing and curving strongly to a slender apex bearing a short, stout apical spine. Claspette a conspicuous subapical process bearing three stout, chitinous processes and three smaller ones but with no trace of a spatulate organ. Harpes divided, the major limb rather stout with a broadly expanded apex crowned with a thick group of stout, chitinous spines. Minor limb about one fourth the length of the major, strongly curved and with a blunt apex. Harpagones broadly expanded at the base, terminating in a long, slender, bluiit, chitinous spine and with a group of short, stout, chitinous spines near the base of the long one. Unci slender, probably approxi- mate, tapering gradually to a
