Hi there,
I try to identify this Culicidae from around Paris (France).
Based on the resting position, I would go with the genus Anopheles but I am not sure the photo allows us to go to the species level.
Anyone ?
Thanks !

Hi, yes I added the photo. I had to downsize it a lot.

Hi, it's not an Anopheles - the palps are too short.
From what I see on your photo, it could be Culiseta longiareolata.

I agree with Eric -
Cs. longiareolata

Thanks a lot! I will have a closer look at the palps next time.
