Abstract
CERTAIN strains of mosquitoes (Culex pipiens) originally found on the Continent can lay fertile eggs without a previous meal of blood and have been termed ‘autogenous'. J. F. Marshall and J. Staley bring evidence that certain man-biting mosquitoes in Great Britain are females of such autogenous strains: they describe the morphological differences between autogenous mosquitoes from various countries and the original non-autogenous variety and suggest that the specific name C. domesticus be revived for the autogenous strain.
