Avoid cotton. Those will tend to dry slowly compared to 100% nylon pants.
There are nylon pants on the market that are not only light and quick-dry but
the weave is so tight that mosquitoes can't bite through it.

They sound like they're worth trying - thanks. I bet they make you
sweat though, don't they? Even my thin (70% cotton 30% nylon) ones are
making me sweat in today's warm weather.

Light nylon are no less comfortable in hot weather than cotton. Supplex (TM)
and similar nylon fabrics are quite soft and comfy.
