Taxonomy and systematics
This species was originally described as Centrolenella duidaeana. However, most subsequent studies have placed it in the genus Cochranella. A study published in 2002 suggested that it belongs to the Cochranella spinosa group. However, morphological data do not allow unambiguous generic placement. With no molecular data available, it is for the time being retained in Cochranella.
