The following is a list of tautonyms: zoological names of species consisting of two identical words (the generic name and the specific name have the same spelling). Such names are allowed in zoology, but not in botany, where the two parts of the name of a species must differ (though differences as small as one letter are permitted, as in cumin, Cuminum cyminum).

Adult A. oinophylla have a wingspan of 4.8–6.2 mm (0.19–0.24 in), with each forewing measuring 2.3–2.8 mm (0.091–0.110 in) in length. [1] Externally, adult A. oinophylla are visually indistinguishable from Aspilanta ampelopsifoliella – the two species can only be differentiated by examination of the genitalia.
The family name is derived from the genus Vitis. Most Vitis species have 38 chromosomes (n=19), but 40 (n=20) in subgenus Muscadinia , while Ampelocissus , Parthenocissus , and Ampelopsis also have 40 chromosomes (n=20) and Cissus has 24 chromosomes (n=12).
