In the course of an investigation of the mosquitoes and other insectsof the town of Taytay, Eizal Province, during the present year, I wasfortunate in being able to obtain full-grown larvse and breed out adultsof two memljers of tl\e genus Cul&x which prove to be new to forms are so different from known ones and so distinct in theirmarkings that their identification is comparatively easy. The> wereboth found breeding under similar conditions and I hope in the nearfuture to be able to work out their entire life histories. During a trip to Benguet in 1907, larvEe were taken from water in thepitcher plant (Nepenthes alata Bl.) and from these there were olitaineda great many adults of a species which also proves to be new. Thisspecies belongs to the genus Wyeoinyia and is thus the first species ofthis genus to be repor
