This melancholic-looking mosquito recently sat in the stairwell of our house in south-west Germany (20 km west of Stuttgart). Could it be Aedes japonicus? Many thanks for helpful hints, Sundew Sundew attached the following image:  [255.76Kb] |

Good morning Sundew, no doubt - it's A. japonicus.
Greetings, Eric Kloeckner |

Many thanks, Eric! Meanwhile I found the nice mosquito key by Lindström et al. (https://www.resea...pecies.pdf) and am fully convinced I got the right species. Best wishes, Sundew |
