Trichopteryx carpinata (Borkhausen) (Fig. 26) Trichopteryx carpinata: Beljaev & Mironov 2019: 257 (Sakhalin). Material examined. 1 ♀, Novoaleksandrovsk, 12.V.2011; 1 ♂, Leonidovo, 12.VI.2017.

Its larvae are polyphagous on deciduous trees, mainly on the various Betulaceae (Alnus, Betula, Carpinus) and Salicaceae (Populus, Salix). Externally and in the genitalia shape, T. carpinata is similar to T. ignorata Inoue. Both species have never been compared in literature and can be easily confused superficially.
