title: Anopheles (Anopheles) forattinii: a new species in Series Arribalzagia (Diptera: Culicidae).
abstract: Anopheles (Anopheles) forattinii new species, a member of the Series Arribalzagia, is described with illustrations of the larval and pupal stages, and male and female genitalia. It is contrasted with 2 similar species, An. (Anopheles) costai Fonseca & Ramos and An. (Anopheles) mediopunctatus (Lutz). This species, and An. costai, occur over much of South America where both have been misidentified as An. mediopunctatus, a species presently only known from southeastern Brazil.
