Dear All,
The photo was taken yesterday night in Hungary, it came to light.
I think its an Anopheles sp, it possible to tell the specie from (these) photos?

Thanks a lot!

It's a female, with very short palps, so not Anopheles. The body shape, colour pattern and overall feel suggest Culex, probably pipiens (a bird-biter).
