Extract

The distribution of 29 species and three varieties of Anopheles in the Sudan is shown on maps. Notes are given on each one with particular reference to distribution. Reasons are given for regarding A. rupicolus Lewis as a synonym or local form of A. rhodesiensis Theo. The former spread of A. gambiae Giles into the Palaearctic Region in Egypt is discussed, and notes are given on its distribution in the Wadi Halfa area.

The general distribution of the Sudan Anophelines is discussed.

Notes are given on malaria and on Wuchereria bancrofti.
