Hello,

Still in Savoy (France), 2007/7/27, 1750 m above sea, size 12-15 mm

Splendid antennas for this male Culicid.

Can something more be said?

I think it is a male Ochlerotatus - those long slender palps are fairly distinctive.

Tony,

I had noted the length of those mouth parts.

Thanks for the identification.
