Summary

These observations indicate that the Mexican A. pseudopunctipennis is distinctly inferior to A. quadrimaculatus in its susceptibility to either strain of P. falciparum employed, and that the latter species of anopheline is probably more susceptible to the Mexican strain, than it is to the Floridian strain, of P. falciparum.
