Stenoptilia forcipata Zell. 
Kashmir, Gulmarg, 8800 feet, bred at end of July from larvae 
spinning together young leaves of Lonicera orientalis ( T. B. Fletcher) ; 
3 ex. This species, only recorded hitherto from Darjiling, and not 
seen previously by me, I find to be a true Btenoptilia, probably of 
early type, and distinguished from all other known species of the 
genus by the blackish medio-dorsal scale-tooth of forewings.
