Good evening,
Here is a Culicidae larva found in a pond in northern France this week:
www.galerie-insecte.org/galerie/image/dos213/temp/larve%20moustique%20LaPotasse%2028aout2018%20GH.JPG
I think it is an Anopheles, but without any idea of the species.
Can you help me to determine it, I do not have a document that allows it.
thank you,
Guénael.

Some of the required detail is not visible in the photo, but the pattern of dark marks on the head is typical of the Anopheles maculipennis complex. Unfortunately I don't think there is any way to separate the species using morphological characters.

I can no longer send private messages (and maybe not receive?), even though my inbox and outbox are not yet full. I write, click "send" and they disappear and never show up in the outbox.
