The opinions on this species are very different. GORODKOV (1986) regarded it as a valid species; while RINGDAHL (1936) listed it as a doubtful species, and his opinion was accepted also by HEDSTRÖM (1991) . BECKER (1894) dit not mention it but listed it later ( BECKER 1905 ) as occurring in Sweden , including the references. ZETTERSTEDT (1860) admitted in the text of the original description a conformity with Cordylura albipila , currently classified as Gimnomera albipila (Zetterstedt, 1845) . The identity of the species remains unclear.
