Hi Kuv, from what I see: female Aedes geniculatus (white knees, distinct pattern of thorax).
Greetings, Eric Kloeckner

The abdomen of this specimen is too pointy for geniculatus - it lacks the broad 8th sternite and short cerci of that species. I would say this is more likely to be Ochlerotatus sticticus.

Thank you very much Tony Smile.
I'll change headline to "more likely Ochlerotatus sticticus".

This is Aedes rusticus. Sides of thorax has way more scales than sticticus.

Thanks for the correction brundlefly - most of the sticticus I see have lost scales anyway - it's time I reared some!

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
