Subspecies
This species is extremely
variable and a large number of subspecies have been described. Not all
of these may be valid. In Germany only the nominate form occurs.

Preissecker, 1937 (excluded name under Article 1.3.4.)
This species is often placed in its own genus Chrysocramboides. I do
not find significant differences between Chrysocrambus and
Chrysocramboides to justify genus rank for Chrysocramboides. Therefore,
I do not currently adopt the placement of Chrysocrambus craterella in
the genus Chrysocramboides.
Distribution
Europe
and Asia Minor. In Germany recorded from Hessen, Rheinland-Pfalz,
Saarland. Older records also exist from Nordrhein-Westfalen, Sachsen
and Sachsen-Anhalt. There is also an unconfirmed record from Bayern.
