Taxonomy and naming.
The genus "Acriopsis" was first formally described in 1825 by Carl Ludwig Blume from an unpublished description by Caspar Georg Carl Reinwardt and Blume's description was published in his book "Bijdragen tot de Flora van Nederlandsch Indie". In the same volume, Blume described "Acriopsis javanica".
The World Checklist of Selected Plant Families considers "A. javanica" to be a synonym of "A. liliifolia" var. "liliifolia".
