Aedes sp. without pale bands on tarsomeres. Aedes rusticus?
I hope that someone with more experience than me could help you with more details

I think this is better left unidentified. Without good views of the side of the thorax or the abdomen dark-legged Aedes are very hard to identify. I would rather think it is something like Aedes pionips though, Leningrad area seems a bit too far north for Ae. rusticus.
