This species occupies an isolated position in the genus Skorikovia due to the very light color of the body and the presence of genitalia with a long, narrow cuspis, making the volsella similar to the males of the genus Rasnitsynitilla Lelej in Lelej & van Harten, 2006, from which it differs by the non-shortened wings with a welldeveloped pterostigma and veins.
