Abstract
1. Anopheles amictus in North Queensland is a favourable intermediate host for Wuchereria bancrofti, comparable but perhaps not quite equal to Culex fatigans. The two described varieties of A. amictus were both tested.2. Experiments with Aëdes vigilax and Culex sitiens show that the former is a rather poor host and the latter a very poor one though infective larvae develop in some mosquitoes.3. In experiments with Aëdes argenteus none of the sixty-two mosquitoes used proved hospitable.4. Some observations on the transmission of filariasis in New Britain and on mosquitoes there are mentioned.
