Chedra fimbristyli is a moth in the family Batrachedridae. It was described by Wolfram Mey, in a paper published with Maria J. C. Ceniza in 1993. It is found on the Philippines. & , 1993: Chedra fimbristyli n. sp. ein minierender Kleinschmetterling an Fimbrystylis ssp (Cyperaceae) auf Leyte, Philippinen (Lepidoptera: Batrachedridae). Deutsche Entomologische Zeitschrift N.F. 40(1): 181-186. Abstract:
The larvae have been recorded mining, with which is meant tunnelling within the tissues of the stems, an unknown Fimbristylis species, a large rush-like plant related to papyrus, known locally as tikog. The tikog has economic importance and is used locally to produce a fibre, and thus this tiny moth can be seen as a nuisance species, because it harms the plant.
