Excerpt from A Monograph of the Culicidae, or Mosquitoes, Vol. 3: Mainly Compiled From the Collections Received From the British Museum, From Various Parts of the World, in Connection With the Investigation Into the Cause of Malaria Conducted by the Colonial Office and the Royal Society Owing to the large number of collections of Culicidae received at the Museum since the appearance of the first two volumes of this monograph in November, 1901, and the frequent enquiries for the names of the mosquitoes sent by medical men, the Trustees have decided to issue a further volume of this work. Between April, 1901, and February, 1903, over a hundred collections have been received. Many of these are of considerable extent, but were found to contain much material that had been previously described. Amongst them, however, were eighty-eight new species, eight new varieties, and several species of which one sex only had been described. Several old species that have not been recorded since the original descriptions were drawn up have also been re - described from this fresh material, and a few species described by other authors are also incorporated so as to make the work complete.
