Abstract

The female counter parts of two species of Tenthredo Linn., viz, T. alami Singh and Saini and T. mandali Singh and Saini are recorded and associated for the first time. T. mandali is confined to upper ranges of Kumaon or Garhwal hills and appears to be at the verge of extinction. On the other hand, T. alami is confined to a very small pocket isolated due to high mountain ranges. They are described and illustrated in comparison to their already known sexes.
