3.1. Taxonomie
Kaila et al. (2025) besprechen die Art in der "Elachista bedellella group (Gelechioidea, Elachistidae, Elachistinae) similar with E. rudectella Stainton, 1851 and E. graeca Parenti, 2002". Barcode-Daten liegen nicht vor. Kaila et al. (2025: 120) schrieben: "E. derbendi is a large, yellowish-coloured species with a rather distinct wing pattern with two longitudinal strips. In the male genitalia, E. derbendi is mostly similar to E. lagotara, however, E. derbendi clearly differs by the curved shape of the cornutus. The female genitalia of E. derbendi can be separated from other species treated here by a combination of two characters: 1) colliculum without longitudinal folds, and 2) ductus bursae gradually widened to the corpus bursae without a distinct border."
