ResumoThe pupae of Culex (Oculeomyia) bitaeniorhynchus and Cx. (Sirivanakarnius) boninensis are described and their taxonomic characters are discussed. Chaetotaxy tables and full illustrations for these two species are prepared. Oculeomyia is resurrected from synonymy with the subgenus Culex and given subgeneric status to include Culex bitaeniorhynchus and Cx. sinensis. A new subgenus Sirivanakarnius is established for Culex boninensis. A key to species of the pupa of mosquitoes from Ogasawara-gunto is presented.
