Remarks.
Stictoptera ochrota

at that time. The localities such as Dalhousie, Kullu, Shimla etc. earlier considered in Punjab are now part of
Himachal Pradesh state
in
India
. Further,
Stictoptera vitiensis
Hampson, 1912: 159
from
Fiji
is probably a race of
S
.
macromma
as per
Holloway (1985)
. It was mentioned in the list from Indian Himalaya by
Sanyal
et al.
(2018)
. Further, confirmation of
S. vitiensis
from
India
is needed and not included in this list.
