For many years Gonomyiella Meunier, 1899 has been considered a junior synonym of Ormosia (Ormosia) Rondani, 1856. However, recently, the type-species of Gonomyiella, Ormosia electrella Alexander, 1931, was placed in the subgenus Ormosia (Oreophila) Lackschewitz, 1935. As a result of this, Gonomyiella has become a subjective senior synonym of Oreophila, syn. nov. A list of species belonging to Ormosia (Gonomyiella) is provided.
