SYNOPSIS An account is given of the member species of the Anopheles punctulatus Dönitz complex viz. A. punctulatus Dönitz, A. koliensis Owen, and 2 species previously recognised as A. farauti Laveran and which are now designated A. farauti No. 1 and A. farauti No. 2. Many of the eggs of A. farauti No. 1 were distinctive but the eggs of the other 3 species were similar. Keys for the identification of larve, pupae and adults are given.
