Colpocheilopteryx is a monotypic moth genus of the family Euteliidae. Its only species, Colpocheilopteryx operatrix, is found in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, South Africa , Zambia and Zimbabwe.[1] Both the genus and species were first described by Hans Daniel Johan Wallengren, the genus in 1865 and the species five years earlier in 1860.[2][3]
The Global Lepidoptera Names Index considers the generic name to be a synonym of Eutelia.[4]
