Hi, I've found these females on 2022-03-07 and 11 in an old shed in Ansbach, garden near Frankenhoehe Nature Park, old deciduous forest and I've identified it as Culex territans:
- apical pale bands on the tergites
- fork R2+3 more distant to M1+2 than pipiens
- no apical band on mid tibia

Can this be confirmed?

EDIT 220509: confirmed by Brundlefly

Oh! That makes me happy! SmileWe just published a book on the northern European mosquitoes. It is in Swedish, but I will translate it to english and hopefully publish that too.
