Mustilia falcipennis
''Mustilia falcipennis'' is a moth in the Endromidae family. It is found in India and Bhutan.〔(BOLD Systems - Taxonomy Browser )〕
The wingspan is about 52 mm. The head and collar are chestnut, while the thorax and abdomen are purplish red-brown, the latter yellowish towards the extremity. The forewings are red-brown, suffused with grey. The hindwings have ayellow costal half, while the inner half is red-brown.〔(George F. (George Francis) Hampson. Moths (Volume 1) )〕
The larvae feed on the leaves of ''Symplocos'' species.〔(The Moths of Borneo )〕 The body of mature larvae is dark brown, speckled with minute yellow dots within each of which a short bristle is found. There is an extensile sublateral flap of skin on the metathoracic and two anterior abdominal segments. When the larva is disturbed this flap is expanded, with the head and anterior part of the thorax retracted, the inflatable organ expands
to resemble an eye, and the caudal horn is swung from side to side. Pupation takes place in a small cocoon of tough brown silk spun amongst leaves of the host plant.〔(Immature Stages of Four Bombycidae Species of Taiwan )〕
