Meyrick originally named this species Scoparia atmogramma.[2] In 1928 George Hudson, in his book The butterflies and moths of New Zealand, illustrated and discussed this species under that name.[3] In 1988 J. S. Dugdale placed this species in the genus Eudonia.[4] The lectotype specimen collected in Invercargill is held at the Natural History Museum, London.
