These organs are ven- tral, submedian, with bases approximate. Thev are. if we have correctly homo- r~^fv logized the parts, highly specialized in ^^ the Anophelinae, in which group they are linear, approximate and usually bear several divergent, spiny apical processes. These organs are remarkably diverse in structure and in Culex, as now restricted, are divided. The terminal falcate blade so conspicuous in Culicada appears to arise from near the base of the setaceous proximal portion. This smooth and usually with its apex crowned with a dense series of stout, chitinous spines, ver>' characteristic of Culex, and pre- sumably occurs in all species, though in certain forms, owing to the lack of Wveoin\ici. ^^^» -—— -:—r- --^ rnale genitalia, showing its" ^peculiar ^bifurcate ai> J-^t- \ Fig 6 W V e o m V i a smithii. , t_ij.
