Extract

In “A Brief Guide to the Varieties of Anopheles maculipennis” which was published in the Quarterly Bulletin of the Health Organisation of the League of Nations, 3, No. 4, December 1934, it is recorded that five varieties of this species are considered valid and that there is in addition the closely allied species—or a further variety— A. elutus. The provisional key to identification given in the Guide is based on the characters of the eggs of the different forms, but information on other characters is added in parentheses. It includes pro-visional information on the characters of the external spine of the harpago.
