The species was originally described in Taiwania Spaeth, 1913 which was, however, at that time already considered as a subgenus of Cassida Linnaeus, 1758 and the name became secondary junior homonym of C. spaethi Weise, 1900 . Gressitt (1945) proposed a new substitute name to replace his C. spaethi . The paratype specimen is also deposited in LNHM.
