The two new species described below were included in collections sent to the Imperial Bureau of Entomology by Dr. P. A. Buxton, of the London School of Tropical Medicine, having been obtained in Kashmir by Major Stevenson in 1926, and again in 1927. The same collections contain examples of a third species of Simulium which appears indistinguishable from the European S. equinum (L.) Edw. Examples of this species had previously been obtained in Kashmir by Mr. F. J. Mitchell.
