AB - OBSERVATIONS ON THE BIONOMICS OF ANOPHELES.* E. O. JORDAN AND MARY HEFFERAN. THE striking recedence of malaria in certain portions of the world and its equally noticeable extension in others are still in part unexplained phenomena, and offer a field for investigation that involves a consideration of many strictly biological problems. Viewed in its broader aspects, the successful conduct of a cam­ paign against malaria rests upon a proper comprehension of the relation of three organisms belonging to widely separated groups of the animal kingdom. The importance of understanding the biological or ecological features of the problem can hardly be overestimated. The possible existence of natural causes favoring or hindering malaria is a matter upon which studies in the field may be able to shed light. An instance of the fruitful outcome of general observations is found in Theobald Smith's! suggestive remarks on the natural history and probable mode of spread of tertian malaria in Massachusetts. With these points in mind the writers have undertaken a series of detailed observations on the bionomics of the malaria-bearing mosquito. The following observations on Anopheles have been carried out partly in the vicinity of Chicago, partly in a small country town in
