Taxonomy

The species was first described as Conobarthra tricolorella. When moved to Acrobasis, the name tricolorella was preoccupied by Acrobasis tricolorella, an unrelated North American species discovered in 1878. In 2012 Chinese lepidopterist Ying-Dang Ren proposed A. inouei as a replacement name.[2]
