Tillyard (1914, 1917a, 1917b, 1926); Hawking (1986), all as Isosticta simplex ; Hawking (1995); Hawking & Smith (1997); Hawking & Theischinger (1999); Gooderham & Tsyrlin (2002); Theischinger & Hawking (2006); Theischinger & Endersby (2009); Hawking et al. (2013).

*Genus Rhadinosticta Watson, 1991

A good generic character is the presence of 6 dark spots on the otherwise pale labium. The two species are identifiable based on morphology. Larvae from south-eastern Australia can be confirmed by distribution as R. simplex ( Theischinger & Endersby (2009).
